Delicate Description

As the wind
blows warm from 
     the west
  the day unravels 
Take up your 
     pen 
and put the 
beauty into
     words
A delicate 
    description 
  is required
  on your part
let the 
     dawn 
   speak to you 
as you revel 
   in its glory 
   Didn't think
     you would 
    ever see
such beauty?
     Well, you have 
to tell everyone 
   about it 
in your verse
    and your verse 
is something 
   that will 
bring 
peace
    it you listen 
carefully to the 
    sound of the 
wind, the gold of the sun

Good flow in this poem. The short lines work well. Most writers will relate to your words. You may want to switch the category from I do not know to free verse. I really like this one. Thank you for sharing it and for taking time to comment on my poem. Keep on writing! Karen

Your words are golden. No one can ever tell you to stop to smell the roses, you are full aware of its fragrance and beauty and share it with all of us. Thank you dear poet. Love, Shar
