Simple Things

In the many faceted images
of a cloud
The rythm of an eagle as
he glides to music unheard
high above a canyon wall
The awesome power of nature
Mirrowed in
the leaves of fall
Giggles and callope,
Ah! sweet sounds,simple sounds
A goodnight kiss from daddy
From mommy a big hug
An imagined wink
from boo-bear
Or was it real?
A couple walking
hand in hand
Through their twilight years
The smell of roses resting
Delicately on the edge
of twilight
As the day becomes night
Ah! sweet things
simple things are
The things
That matter most in life

You took me to the Grand Canyon in less than 20 seconds! Best line? Roses resting delicately on the edge of twilight. In the half light, I see your smile at peace with your world. Thanks for sharing.

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
