Michael J. Falotico Poet Rhyme

A Soul With Sight

Our souls are like small houses in a field...
Some keep their windows closed up like a shield..
Others throw open their french doors and 
let the whole world in..
There are a few that peek through the basement
windows and hide in sin..
I try to stay on the top floor with the curtains
drawn open wide..
I gaze hopefully out my window, but even with or 
without mistakes I can't  hide...
I need to see for I can write, for the world outside 
my soul is my sight..

Carolyn Devonshire June 10, 2011 at 10:38 AM If we remain too sheltered from the outside world, we receive little inspiration, Michael. A very profound message in this poem and so beautifully written. Feeling a bit better today and am trying to catch up on some comments. Love, Carolyn
