- When Words Are Not Enough -

When a heaven cracks and stars go to sleep 
  Morning so incredibly quiet - 
  A peaceful morning - the sun's rays meet my gaze 
  I listen to the peace - to its eternal rest - and I think 
  that this moment must forever be in my heart 


  My eyes filled with clear and clean blue sky 
  So beautiful quiet morning - a fjord bright as a mirror 
  . . . I'm missing my words 
  Happiness rustling through the blood 
  and awakens my senses 
  I float among the clouds and angels 
  picks diamonds like they were candy 
  The sun glows in all its glory 
  The words are no longer in my power

Paul Schneiter Date: 7/6/2014 2:30:00 PM This poem takes us—with magnificent imagery— to a place we would like to go. The opening line is one I wish I had written (not to mention other lines). "When Words Are Not Enough" is, through and through, a delight. Anne Lise has a lovely poetic voice.

Xx~Xx Login to Reply Cynthia Ferguson Date: 5/6/2014 6:20:00 AM you write very pretty, I am just a rhymer, I never had school or any type of education writing poetry, so I don't know what a lot of the definitions mean, and I to to stay away from contests as I don't always know what they are asking for, and my poem gets rejected, so I feel it to, I have been writing about three years , I got a way to go yet, I just like to write for fun, and I hope I can share a feeling or have someone say I know just how that feels, and I can give someone an emotion, I hope I like it here, last place I was trying started good but the same , once in contests and running into college kids who pick at every comma and capital letter, and your gramma is off, just take all my fun away, school was long ago, thank you again for your kind reception to a new writer, I just hope I make someone happy or even cry from something I wrote, even if one person was moved it was all worth it, :)
