I have no name for this, i am not sure it is a whole poem.. i just wrote it on the spear (spare?) of the moment.. yesterday.. but I think it fits with the challenge.. ^_^

A little wrinkle,
Smoothed by the voice,
Of the cool, fresh breeze;
Blue brook,
Trickling over worn stones,
Chortling happily,
At cheeky dragonflies.
I laugh, and then discover,
No-one is listening,
So the serenity and silence,
Is not disturbed.

Are you sure it fits, Lynne. It's child abuse prevention month. So, hmm, this poem really doesn't sound like abusive at all (hehe). But yeah, i think whatever your contribution would be counted.

Thanx swampie! yeah.. hehe.. I remamber I tried to catch one when I was about 7.. but it kept teasing me.. just staying out of reach.. hehe.. they are cheeky. ^_^

Yeah, i know it is james.. I think i put a poem up somewhere for that.. I think it was one of Kaile's challenges.. but this was in answer to a challenge from Lost Dreamer.. fto write a poem on tranquility.. so.. this was kinda not meant to be anything different.. hehe.. hey, haven't seen u here for a while, where did u go??

L.D.. well, I am glad it fits.. ^_^ I was not sure, 'coz it was just a little verse that kinda jumped out.. and I had not decided if it was whole or not.. ^_^

Thanx ESP.. well, glad u like it. Yeah, THAT's the word i was looking for!! ^_^ geez.. i haven't used it for so long.. actually, think I have NEVER used it.. just said it.. thank you! ^_^

How about "Blue Brook"?
Very peaceful sitting by a babbling brook. I spent many hours doing just that when I was young. Excellent poem

thank you both for such delightful suggestions for poem titles! ^_^

Thanx Liz .. yeah.. I love to just sit.. watching.. s'pecially to watch dragonflies just above the waters surface.. ^_^ A perfect title.. thanx..

Thanx Kaile.. Hey, i have a new poem form for you.. well, you may already know of it. ^_^ I have written one to show you... check my post.. "No-one and Everyone - a Diamond Poem" ^_^ brilliant title.. oh boy.. hehe, now I gotta pick.. ^_^

Oh, by the way, I did write a poem for Child Abuse week.. but.. I haven't posted it.. 'coz I think it is too delicate a subject, and I did not capture what I wanted to.. so, I would rather not, unless it says more or less what I want it to.. maybe I will later.. ^_^
