- An Umbrella For Two -

The faces are lifted 
                 towards heaven
                 Rain falls 
                 like tears from 
                 a grieving sky 
                 The perfect moment 
                 Under an umbrella for two 
                 You will see that the sky is singing 
                 and shelves every moment on this earth

PART 2....I don't read and comment so ppl comment on my stuff. I Think poets could actually learn if they took the time to read the works of other writers. That's why I am here. So, thanks for sharing here under the umbrella of your words! Hopefully you don't get sick of my two cents worth on your stuff. I really am impressed and will carry on until my time runs out tonight!

- 2 - If all were quite similar to each other, it would be boring - Some write so "deep" that I do not understand what they are writing about :))) - But, as you say ... we are here to learn - I am happy that you chose my poem - Thank you, JSL !!! - oxox // Anne-Lise :)

With time on my side, and bad weather in my skies this fine Saturday, something inside told me to PICK a POET and read till ya' bleed. THEN, the tough part was how to pick from all the poets. SO, I randomly clicked on one of your comments which took me to your poems, and I GOT HOOKED! I figure, you spent all the time and effort writing these, I might as well dive in and read em', What better way to get to know a poet. Besides, I don't really care that not many ppl read my stuff on here.

- I'm pleasantly surprised :))) - You've spent a lot of time on my poems - Highly appreciate your visit - I used to call my poems for "small kitchen table poems" - Writing from my heart and the things that occupy me in worldview - use simple words - I am in essence not so concerned about how others write - everyone is different -

Beautiful rendering of a tender moment. I especially like the last line and your novel use of the word "shelves". Very creative. ...Sam
