A mellifluous patter broke the silence in my mind
Speckles of rain graced my forehead as the clouds began to unwind
...
Im an old head on young shoulders my father once said
fewer and fewer like me I do dread
...
The cold November wind swept in, it flew right into me
It took a leaf from my heart and set its beauty free
It left me nervous overjoyed, crying with relief
Shaking like a leaf
...
Daisy chains and paper planes
Childhood friends memory remains
...
Some of the greatest things in life are very seldom seen,
This is why we close our eyes when we kiss or cry or dream.
...
Have you ever seen a spiders web that glistened in the rain
That sudden look of innocence when someone is in pain
The ever lasting flow of clouds on a warm spring day
An elderly widow clasping hands as she kneels to pray
...
This passed few days ive lived my life with someone on my mind
That someones you, i think you knew, my mind is on rewind.

The Hooked Fisherman
A mellifluous patter broke the silence in my mind
Speckles of rain graced my forehead as the clouds began to unwind
A bucolic trance set the ambiance as my rod began to quiver
Alas a bite, my hands began to shiver
An Ineffable feeling gripped me with pleasure
The moist droplets on my eyelashes glistened like treasure
A petrichor fragrance explodes through the air
This moment in time not a thing do I care
A sussorous melody as the heavens hit the lake
If I fell asleep I wish for this each time I wake
The rain isn't bad it is beautiful and pure
Excuse me a moment look there goes my lure
Your poetry stirs the heart and soul. Best wishes for a future that is bright and creative.
