****new Beginnings

Rating: 2.9


the clouds
................dark in the horizon
..............................prepare for departure

the day
................morning fresh
..............................invite us to join in

we learn our language
................without dictionaries
through sight and sound
................our own history
a repeating series
................of understanding
with a background
................of Mama and Papa

Well written and beautiful philosophy. I love the power this piece delvers with so few words. Take care.

Excellent Ben, this is so true as Meggie and Sandra have commented too! Wouldn't it be great if we could display free verse without having to put all the dots in as I can see this would look even better than it already is (if that is possible) . 10 love Karin
