In Quiet Reflect
~*Marge Tindal*~
    
There is a place of quiet reflect
that seeks my company
I traipse the pathway to the spot
in need of poetry~

As I sit the garden bench
I am *gifted* with inspired ink
that fills to overflowing
my little ink-of-think~

There is serenity to be found
at the end of pathway's wind
as thoughts-in-flow come streaming
to fill the poet's mind~

I sit ... I sigh
in contemplate of words so sweet
When my quill needs filling once more
I'll set my feet on the pathway
to quiet retreat~



~Thanking Passions In Poetry's member MartyJo for the inspire of the photo~



~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~

Marge,

As I have, I'm certain that she too will admire and appreciate your poetic expression of quiet reflection.

God bless.

Thank you so much Marge. You more than fulfilled my wishes. This little respite was put together with the idea of a quiet place to sit and unwind. A place private enough so I could watch the birds and other small wild life going about their daily tasks while I just relax. martyjo

P.S.that silver ball is my husband's bowling bowl that I spray painted silver. He is always around in many areas of my life...

Beautiful photo Mary Jo.  Marge as usual you have written a beautiful poem with picture to match.  It made me feel stress free.  I want to write a fathers day poem.
