a calm afternoon

a rare kind of poem for me. i wrote it in a brief moment of happiness and calmness

the sound of raindrops

silencing the world around me

a flickering flame

and it's dancing shadows

the smell of fresh cutted grass

on a warm summer day

the taste of tea 

warming my body from within

the touch of an old book

leading me to a new world

Author's Note

i know it's short but that's my style. i write it down in a moment and never return

and this moment, these moments are not captured enough. Poetry always seems to be about pain.
Pain gets old, sad poetry gets old...it is nice to see something positive...
a moment worth saving.

yeah i know what you mean, most of my poetry is about pain, probably because writing it down helps me cope with it but one should always remember to embrace the happy moments as well
