Stillness

Something about the way the words move

quietly, creeping up on my ears

my soul takes flight for I have found

that simple niche inside my heart

This is really nice. I have a thing for short poetry. You can say so much in just a few words.

[rhythm&blues]

How funny, I was just reading you and thinking the same. Thank you so much.

[Angi]

That is funny! I have written some longer ones and they just don't satisfy like the short ones do. I can't wait to read more of your stuff!

[icelandicblue]

This is exquisitely simple yet infused with so much meaning. Your words sit in quiet beauty upon the page.

[rhythm&blues]

I am bowled over by your words, thank you.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i like short and sweet like this.

leaves much open but says so much.

[rhythm&blues]

You are very kind, thank you Jacob.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

just very honest as to how poems hit me...i think short is more powerful than wordy..less is more...
and this is much more than what could simply meet the eye.

[rhythm&blues]

I should tell you that you made my day and I feel so much more at ease about writing here now, thank you so much.

[Sami Khalil]

The feelings are mutual ...Thank you kindly...:)

[Corset]

oooo, this is very very nice, and smooth, I loved the "feel" of this, like a dawning or an awakening or a simple acceptance of self? perhaps...short and excellent that way, it needs nothing else.

[rhythm&blues]

I am smiling. Means so much, thank you, thank you.

[Corset]

The pleasure was mine :)

[victoria]

Lovely imagery.....I saw words on tiptoes :)

[rhythm&blues]

Thank you so much, I've just started writing recently so that means a lot!

[Leslie Philibert]

Nice short poem, the first line has a touch of George Harrison - good one.

[rhythm&blues]

Thank you Leslie, I'm a beginner but loving it!
