Here I am, with a blank page What will I write on it? I could write about my dreams, But I can’t seem to reach them From the place where I sit Like little stars they twinkle Far up in the sky, But, like stars, they seem so far— Way too far for me to touch Since I’m just a normal guy Maybe instead some pretty flowers Could speak through my poet’s hands If I could only but grasp Their intangible spirits I would start to understand If I could reach those flowers I am sure that I would find That the dreams that I had lost Or that shined beyond my reach Are with the flowers intertwined |

(smiles) Yay! This is such a precious and enlightening debut, sweet friend, I love it, pay attention not to the groundhog's shadow but to your outlook of your own sun, yay! Welcome to Passions, sweet Benjamin, may you be inspired by all of us here as we will all be inspired by your lovely words! I can't wait to read more of your lovely words, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Benjamin, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Enjoyable post, I love the way you've reached for the flowers with one hand while keeping the other one poised to grasp the stars. Welcome! |
