a lump
here in this chair
fuzzy brained
tousled hair
puddled thoughts
muddled as rain
dripping down
like some drizzled thinking
soggy socks~
wordless and stinking

deep within
a desire to be profound
yet vacuumed spots
echo back no sound

slumbered streams
flow and float away
carry with it
all I’d like to say

whispered morning
takes wing on blackbird’s song
filtered rays of ponderings
lifts the light along

evening’s serenade
bathes the valley floor
in rose and amber musings
how could I ask for more?

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Yes how could you ask for more....and how could we. This poem is a masterpiece..there is a feeling of longing and then the words flow into the poem fulfilling all that is wanted. Absolutely delightful. **big hugs** I love it.

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

"deep within
a desire to be profound"  Ah, yes, don't we want to be profound sometimes. Great poem her VAS really enjoyed it. floria
