Caught

Wanting to understand Listening to the words Not knowing Understanding the pain Understanding the loss I just listen to the wind It moves through me like the breath of God It moves over me like an artists’ brush It runs through my hair Flows through my soul And leaves with a whisper Like she never visited at all Just be on…there is love Alone with my thoughts It is love that graces me That moves me Causing feelings to rise To emerge Wanting to pass through Getting caught in my throat Why do I hang on so Allow to rise Time heals That which is broken within (That which flowed through while listening to Alcatraz by Hey Rosetta)

Gordon, 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 <-@
