# He Made Me Poem by Sonya Florentino

# He Made Me

Rating: 5.0


He made me stop… and listen to a leaf fall

The sun burn... the grass grow

He made me stop …and listen to the ripple,

the echo...the shadow

He made me stop... and listen to my heart

How it breathes, what it needs

He stopped me on my tracks - there is no turning back, I am

…. mesmerized by him

The hypnotist... from afar

... whispering words

… that cling to my heart

Wow! He made you feel so many wonderful things with his words. Your imagery is so beautiful. I wonder if he was a poet. Then again, you would have the beauty within you to respond to these glorious words as this is what your writing shows... 10 Karin Anderson

Sonya, your 'he' sounds very special indeed, and how fortunate are you to have had this joyous experience of self-awareness, and awareness of all that is around you. Beautifully written. Silence is often the best form of poetry.
