a presence seeming, eyes that stare, a feeling something else is there... the simple spark of soft aware... a ghost of hand, ghost of care... simply every every thing a gift a voice a rhyme that sings... a flutter of a thing with wings-- a Presence-- once, where none was there. |

Serenity, what is your subject! I have many guesses, all very fitting. Reminds me of when I was just past being a child and left alone in our large, old farmhouse . Nice job. ~ Beth |

Serenity~ This is so beautiful, a lovely reminder of my nan's presence the night of her funeral, I was alone and thinking of her when I felt her hand on mine...sounds weird I know but it did happen. Thanks for the remembrance Tracie~ Love is the life of the soul... It is the harmony of the universe |

What a wonderful style you have Serenity. This flowed so perfectly ... just loved it! And yes, keep us guessing on the "Presence", it can mean so many different things to each different reader, well done! Best wishes, /Kit |

I not only enjoyed your poem, but I really enjoyed your replies!! I agree with you...that the subject can be interpreted individually!! Yes.....that's what I love about all of your work.....there's a certain freedom that gives the reader a personal view. You have a fantastic style, my friend!! Follow your dream! |
