A Walk Through Paradise
I close my eyes to find a place
In different time and different space
And in imagination find
A cloistered arbour for my mind
Where thought may there be unconfined
Then in my dreams a path I take
As in a trance, yet wide awake,
To see the world with open eyes
Its glist`ning sands and azure skies -
I take a walk through Paradise

Nice poem, thanks for sharing it
This Woman is a Gift to Earth.....
She Writes and brings Heaven Closer.....
A marvelous story poetically expressed. Truly wonderful.
excellent poems. you are great in explaining your feels. i invite you to read my poem
Valerie is definitely among the most talented poets on Poemhunter.
She is not afraid to give enough space to her feelings.
Good feelings, negative feelings, she ventilates and lets them move
She uses a wonderful language and striking images to translate the emotion into fantastic verses
Reading her poems is like taking a rest in an oasis
I hope to read much much more on PH from Val
quite brilliant, lovely work, thanks for sharing and not dispairing
A poet of great sensitivity, beauty and charm., like the Masters once were.
With words she paints such charm and gives the reader this wonderful sense of well-being
If poems were like paintings, hers would hang in the Louvre.
Shall I, No More, Contentment Praise
Beautifully couched Val.
Southport? I was a fire chief at Southport circa 1974
So there you are. I've been wandering through your poems trying to comment on each individual tale. The sad ones are the best eh? Keep writing Val. We need all of the rhythm and rhyme we can get,
