Simple Verbiage How soft the wind blows today No change. How green the greenery lay. Slight change. How tall the trees paint the sky Tipped yellow I see How swift the birds turn and fly. Fewer it seems to me. How white the clouds form anew No change. How beautiful the skies blue Slight change. How golden the sun in shine In the haze How peaceful this earth of mine Untrue these days Where once I stood, simply looked Only little change Now I search a quite nook. For less change Where once the air fresh and fair Now irritated Now it tangs with acid there. Fully tainted. Oceans lap a coarser leach Of sand Pull away a coarser beach Of land Shadows fall about the same Of different view They always fall, where they aim. That is true. But down the face of my morrow There flow two tear. One is laced of coming sorrow And one of fear |

Not what I expected from the title. Too many truths herein, especially the last two lines. Well done my friend. |

But down the face of my morrow There flow two tear. One is laced of coming sorrow And one of fear =============================== oh Sy...this is so damn beautiful ... bittersweet and softly sad ... but sweet in its sincerity. and any poem penned with such honesty, wisdom and truths ... could never be called "simple" and Stinky...you "verbiage" like few ever do. And WE who witness your light ... are better for it. me thinks thou needs a butterfly ... to brush those tears from thine eyes  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~Recipe For Rasberry Tea~ for Sy  First you take your favorite cup or mug ... the one that makes you feel like a morning hug. Pour in a golden glow sunbeam or two add a drop of mystic magic kissed dew. Measure a pinch of rainbow confetti sprinkles some emerald moon dust with starshine twinkles Now you'll need something sweet to draw the butterflies Petals from rose of suppose ... just bloomed with the sun's rise Stir them all together and add your dreams the ones you wish for on silvered moonbeams Add a spot of wisdom cadence kissed with rhyme then the raspberries grown in the Eden of your mind Simmer slowly ... inhale the essence till it takes you higher ... till you take flight to a new level of inspire and desire 'Tis then you will learn that you really can fly... on a wing and a prayer...kiss the moon and touch the sky All your dreams unrequited can indeed come true... once you've been invited to Raspberry tea for two *winkiewinkie* |

I must echo my friend Sudhir on this one. . . it's very well done Sy. . . just flows right off the page and paints that picture that you always seem to just now how to show. . . ------------------------------------------------------ To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
