from a tiny acorn,
the oak tree grows.
what a man cant find,
a child will know.
only the heart
knows the secret
of where the wind blows...
and that's enough for me.
from drops of water,
the clouds are formed.
that go together,
to make the storm.
from the thunder
and the lightning,
the rainbow is born....
and that's enough for me.
the feeling that i have for you
is the simple song i sing.
your mind may not understand,
but your heart knows what i mean.
A lovely poem Eric - very good. The heart knows all if we would look there.
Excellent Eric. Do you have this available on CD? If so how may I obtain one please?
I came upon your poem by accident and loved it. I love the way you create feelings and imagery with few words. I look forward to reading more of your work. ☺
'the feeling that i have for you is the simple song i sing. your mind may not understand, but your heart knows what i mean.' Interesting lines and a very well-written poem.. Thank you :)
I really loved this poem. Somethings don't need to be explained.
I really like this one Eric, the simplicity of the heart is beautiful!

I would like to translate this poem
i wrote this originally as lyrics for a song... my good friend Tim Bridges wrote the music... he has passed on to the other side now. came to my memory again at the passing of another friend, Joey Ottone, this week.... for all those we've loved and lived life with, for those who have journeyed with us!
