Shy


If I could pour out
my words so clear,
I would be a babbling brook,
at your ear.

However…
being that I am much too shy,
I will consider my voice
a’ mere inside...

My thoughts a honeycomb,
with buzzing busy bees,
will flow down from my head,
to my wobbly knees.

Down to my toes and back again
to tingle my hazy mind.

And all the while
I’ll think of you,
as if,
you were mine…

If they read your poem they would feel the deepness of your desire...heartfelt and beautiful...

This brings a vivid definition to the meaning of being Shy.  I like your imagery.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

I would think
this would bring
on the bees
and more.

Enjoyed, JL.

JL, you've spoken what's closest to my heart... All you've described about words coming out like a babbling brook, and wobbly knees... This is so endearing...

Nice imagery, JL. I especially liked that babbling brook.
