Beyond What I See

Stare at that dot, that big blue dot that asks, "What do you see?" I see the most important commodity to humans, the earth's oceans, lakes, rivers and streams. Along the horizon, the clear blue skies join with the waters. It appears to be nothing surrounding this sphere. I see the fresh air we breathe in this nothingness. I see the plumage of beautiful tropical birds. Blues, make up the sound of some of the most amazing music. I also see the sadness on this earth, brought on by all the rot of this world. The extraordinarily complexed blue before you, is all around us in this life? So my friends, "What do you see?"

"Blues, make up the sound of some of the most amazing music. " - this reminds me of the movie Fantasia which shows that color, design and music are intertwined. And now you have done this in a magnificent poem, my friend!

I see an amazing lady that has me appreciating the beauty of the earth more since I read this lovely poem. I have thought about those on the earth when they show pictures from space. It is good to remember all the good on this beautiful planet we are so blessed with!

Happy New Year Charles. Thankyou for building me up on my writing. I am just learning and realize I just want to be ME in my writing. No coping others, but hopefully learning from all of you. Much appreciated.
