''Reflections''

A poem about what makes us......us!

'' Reflections''

Sometimes I just sit and think

Of morning rain

And sunshine silk

Of bumbling bee's just buzzing by

Of flowers that bloom

A baby's cry

Soft white clouds that drift along

Clear blue sea

A mocking bird song

A sweet caress on a moonlit night

Loving arms that hold so tight

Setting sun

Lonely Beach

Stars that we can never reach

Trees that give us air to breathe

In gods love we must believe

A tender kiss

A wave goodbye

An infants smile

And a lovers sigh

The first steps when we start

The pride we hold within our Hearts

Music that can make us weep

promises we could never keep

Friendships lost

And family ties

Heartache caused by wistful lies

Sickness that can take a life

Wars that kill

A loving Wife

A hand to hold when its time to go

All above makes us so

I am terribly intellectual bordering on stupidity, I find writing like this extremily difficult quasi non exsistent for me, which is why, when I read someone who does and does well is something to behold. It was a journey of warmth, of serentiy and a feeling as if you managed to peaked through a window and time stood still or at least long enough for you to capture. As it was everything got threaded semlessly and the lines are full of life. The rhyme wors extremely well in the context uniting and inviting.

Thankyou

[Will Neill]

Rene, I'm so glad you got pleasure from my poem.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

and all the above...that is what makes us poets.

because that is life, and it is what we take as dictation to ourselves, and we transcribe it.

really like the sharing of all those little realities that make for true poetry of the soul...not made up stuff that just looks or sounds good.
nicely done.

[Will Neill]

Jacob, Thank you. I only write from the heart. Take Care.

I loved it. All those things that make us what we are, thinking, compassionate, reflective human beings; and you write so beautifully of the beauty that surrounds us and that we so often simply take for granted.

Beccy.

Thank You.
