Trepidation

Trepidation

A Poem by Emily B
"

another old one

"

Resolute

stood the mountain laurel

on the little hill.

Steadfast

held her leaves of green

to the noble sun--

and came along the little Bee

curious and bold.

His whispered words

of Trembling pulses

Yielded forth the prize.

This IS very Emily like, it reminds me of a movie, an english man went up a hill and came down a mountain, I was so impressed by that true story made for movie, Like I am by this beautiful poem. To stand resolute in ones convictions, is a beautiful thing, so stand resolute while the bee whispers, well that's nature calling :)

I would agree with the previous review that with 'his' there is a change in the theme..as in not an absolute change but it is those three last lines which added a different voice to this poem.I like the subtle sensuality here.How there is so much in the nature for us to see and learn from....only a discerning view such as yours can grasp that.I love the title 'trepidation'..such an apt term for the words that followed.

what a beautiful word, trepidation.
and a plant resolute. with all my years of gardening, i need a genius like you to point out the resolution of plants. of course of course!
steadfast. resolute and steadfast. i will view my flowers in a different way today!

leaves held to the sun... almost like worshipping... how had i never noticed before... that the plants
worship the sun... and never noticed the curiosity of the bees... how curiously

they buzz

Your words leave me tingling.... The part about the little Bee is simply gorgeous....
I like how you capitalized that particular word....very nice...

Another favorite, Emily. Theme is classic and so very beautiful.
