Gathering Rasberries

As I gather the rasberries
   Thinking only of you
With Dove's coo to entertain me
    As he sings his love too

I will have to wash in water
Damaged ones will have to curr
Like God takes the damaged sir
Transforms into another

A lovely piece of Poem. It is definitely God who transforms us anew as the human soul is immortal, it is only the body which changes it shape in a new form. Like we throw old clothes and wear anew one. Beautiful write my friend. And thanks for your precious comments on my poem The Sunshine. Love and best wishes.......Ravindra........Sara Kendrick.
