Sarah Hand Poet Rhyme

Babble On

Wild little brook in such a hurry
Lifting your face to the sun
Tumbling over the hours and days 
Chatting along as you run

Hundreds of tiny glass sail boats
Blinking and glittering by
Before crafty cumulus scoops them away
To moorings way up in the sky 

Babble on little brook unrelenting 
Casting your watery spells
Murmuring muttering mumbles
The peel of your bubble bells

A flurry of pink blossom petals
Whipped high by a southerly gust
Showers your face in confetti
To alter your pace as it must

Hush now little brook, are you listening?
And can you hear yourself think?
With the dragonflies darting and zipping
Magically gone in a blink

Babble on little brook while we’re sleeping
Determine your course in the dark
And we will awaken tomorrow
To the flute of the meadowlark

Freddie Robinson Jr. October 3, 2016 at 11:00 PM That was a very lovely poem, Sarah. The imagery was lush and richly descriptive. This was an engaging piece of poetic artistry. I think this was a very good poem on so many different levels. It was a poem that makes me love the pastoral nature of things. Ty for sharing it us. Will read more of your work, pronto. Also ty for reading my poem, I do appreciate your comments. Love and more love. Sarah Hand October 4, 2016 at 12:39 PM And thank you Freddie for your very kind words.

Poet Destroyer A October 1, 2016 at 11:04 AM Sarah,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <- Sarah Hand October 1, 2016 at 11:46 AM Hi Linda, thanks for your comments about my poem and also for the comments on my poem titled Castles. I've read the poem of yours called The Rose and I find it very thought provoking and sad, albeit in a constructive way. I have suffered loss too, of my father when I was very young and I've posted a poem dedicated to him called The Tune, if you get a moment to read it. Thanks again Linda, for making me feel welcome.
