I Stand

I stand before the evening breeze
Within the odor of the trees
Watch the clouds go drifting by
Painting colors on my eye

It flies my mind into a float
Brings my senses to a dote
Lifting me to states naïve
One that most would not believe

I stand as Adam of a day
Watching Eden on display
Counting blessings one by one
Until the sun is gone and done

And in the tender of the seem
I make a wish upon the dream
I wish that all could feel this breeze
Within the odor of the trees

To open up their Eden’s door
And see the wonder and the awe.

Yeah, most definately know that richness
Big smiles and hugs...thank you for the ripeness of your voice

and I grab your hand shaking it furiously
in excitement of a new morning of song from Mr. Sy......
Good to see you!

"Adam of a day"


I stand as a moth craving rhyme ...
grateful for Sy keeping perfect time.

Everytime I open a Seymour Tabin poem...
This is exactly the gift I receive...

Thank you so much, Sy...

From where "I Stand", you are able to bring Eden to your readers' doors through your wonderfully descriptive writing of it!

Care for an apple? Apple

~ Oh, perhaps you shouldn't. Remember what happened when I gave one to Adam! We wouldn't want history repeating itself! lol

Good morning Sy .... a delight, sheer delight. I sit here looking at mountains covered with snow and they are glistening as the sun hits them. I'm in total awe!!!!

hugs and smiles, Marti
