" Changing of a Day " I look outside, Through window Gray bleakness, Blankets the day Storm clouds roll, across the sky Thunder sounds, clashing loudly In distance lightning cracks On the ground rain drops pound Giving of a wonderous smell That soothing sound as they fall Faraway the blue sky is torn Drying the path, shining warmth Opening flowers , giving them life Birds now flying, fluttering wet feathers dry A lovely newness to a day once so black The Dark clouds have passed The thunder now distantly sounding Lightning non existant, gone Sunshine coming forth, warming my face Through window , once cold and gray Amazed are my eyes How quickly a day can change |

a beautiful and very vivid picture. Opening flowers , giving them life Birds now flying, fluttering wet feathers dry A lovely newness to a day once so black The Dark clouds have passed wonderful, Lightning non existant, gone Sunshine coming forth, warming my face Through window , once cold and gray Amazed are my eyes How quickly a day can change ------------------------ "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time". Baltimore Grotto "To be nobody-but-yourself-in a world which is doing its best night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting." E.E Cummings. "Art is a lie which makes us realise the truth." Pablo Picasso "We Irish are too poetical to be poets, we are a nation of brilliant failures" Oscar Wilde ----- |

beautiful poem! this was seen clearly in my mind as i read it. excellent! take care, amy "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends." "Fate exists but it can only take you so far, Because once you're there It's up to you to make it happen." |
