Colorful Hours

And now, no rest for the weary
For cognitive or not, my message is my theory 
Right from the tip of these keys
Hopeful and willing are the words and deeds
 
Light to dark and warm against cold
Caressing the images and the thoughts that they hold 
And there is so much for me to see 
So much more left inside of me 

My minds journey knows no end 
From the beginning of the paper and the ink that I spend 
Wind swept senses 
To old wooden fences 

I am driven through a course of letters and sentences
Assembled and flavored with no repentances 
Be it site or sound 
I guess I’ll keep on penning till I‘m widely renowned

I love the way Michael put it! Yes...it really only matters that the important people in your life appreciate the beauty of your talent...however, I'm sure there is still a wealth of lovely works that aren't yet written by you. You have a wonderful gift...I won't be surprised, if you go far in the poetry world! : ) ~Carrie

Hi Laura - The rhyme and flow just enhanced the already outstanding message this poem so profoundly delivers - You go Laura - Always keep in mind that it's more important to be renowned by the few who matter than all the rest - God Bless you
