A BUS RIDE...... I am sitting on the bus Looking at these people And wondering what they're thinking Looking back at me Do they see a woman, filled with confidence and perfection Always happy, always smiling Always free Or do they see a woman With her heart a little fragile With tears beneath the surface Waiting for the moment when her face will tell the story of an requited love... Am I that transparent - even on a bus? |

Probably not Roniece...I didn't see it even from here (and we all know that an inside look is more revealing than the outside anyday!). "The finest qualities of our nature, like the bloom on fruits, can be preserved only by the most delicate handling. Yet, we do not treat ourselves nor another thus tenderly." ~Henry David Thoreau |

I have often thought these same thoughts, and how nicely you express them Liz |

You know, I ride the bus home from school every day, and I've thought about this a lot...thanks for bringing it to my attention! Hmm...but a transparent dragon...hey, that kind of reminds me of my own first poem! Great work! Little Spyro T. Dragon |

While looking out from behind these eyes I often think with great surprise the eyes I'm looking in are looking back at me then I smile ... confident that they see the very best in me. I like your bus trip. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
