Delighted By the Sun

Another day here in the Bg Apple Elections finally over the crowd goes back to its serious business You shouldn't knock the people because they are striving Let the sun shine in and delight us We are part of the masses of humankind Which inhabit this city Which make love to the metroplolis With their hands, hearts and feet every single day

Dear Matthew, This is a delightful poem. I enjoyed reading it and your glowing tribute to the people of the metropolis. A fine example of your talent. Thanks also for your comments on my Quatrain True Love. Let me share a Quatrain from my book Rubai'yat of Josh Malihabadi- A Drop & the Ocean: The glare of wisdom of centuries imbibed/ And the vision of the two worlds eyed/ Who are you? O venerable man! I asked/ 'I am time', the passing man replied. -Mohammad

looking at this i see a point of view that is valid enough,but i wonder how many diffrent views there are on one subject, and how to best reach out find echo, and maybe a sharing of different values, that can lead to enrichment, and perhaps a better co-existance for more people, you have got me thinking here, thanks for sharing your poetry.
