You have heard my sorrow song
Its bile fingers penetrating your throat
Each word hangs to your mouth on a hook.
I grow weary of this, for today at least
I am smugly tasting unadulterated peace.
The water's stillness reflects light
Stars sparkling on a crest fallen wave,
The ripples tickle bathing skin
In embryo purity I have not yet
been baptised to your hollow eyed misery.    
Let the cavern ears carry my joyful echo
I am laughing, shattering still sorrows
to myself in this moment of bliss.

------------------
This poem exists for no better
reason than just to exist,
it is like a silly rhyme
or simple thought
It is a short holiday
from miserable dissection
and inner pondering
think of this as not a statement but.....
A SMILE.

This piece is a little different for you I think Brian.  I liked it very much.

Brian...I, too, find enjoyment in your words.  Sometimes we have to let go..and just enjoy life for what it is:  Life.  Hardrock

SpitFire, I smile and laugh a lot just not when writing poetry. I wrote this after some serious poems. Think I needed to smile. Thanks for your response.

Marina, thanks

Hardrock totally agree. Thanks
