Be Gentle As a Sunlit Cloud





Do not in your spirit, let disquietude roam.
Close your ears, to each hour’s lies spoken.
Or, you won’t know this…but your heart is
verily broken!
Your spirit looks for resentment, then your 
soul becomes its home.


Satisfied poets are grateful for what they have done.
Be gentle as a soft cloud, for all poets here are of 
rain-bowed vicissitudes.
Living in varied global-latitudes,having mixed attitudes.
Forget not, gratefulness under God’s golden sun!

Wise advise my friend, resentment is a sickness that grows if held on to. Let it go! Love will prevail. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill

Hello Bill, we are on the same page here for sure! Some people live on resentment as their food. And you can see it in some replies to poems. That is inappropriate. Make a positive comment is the rule here having political arguments and insulting a writer is not kosher. Besides that it is very rude. I think you know what I mean. If one does not like a poem, let it go. This is not Twitter or Facebook. Panagiota XXX

Hi Eve..sure, we may get hurt feelings, nw and then. So what? Poets see what others do. The point is love is the healer. Maintain gratitude..I know you do! Hugs Panagiota xx
