How About You

I never tire of wings
How about you, a flier?

I never tire of moon and stars
How about you, a dreamer?

Never tire of love
How about you, a kiss 
And a hug? -- 

Sometimes I tire of life
But hang in there
Sensing always a new
Verse to be had for most
Everything -- 

How about you, a flier?
A dreamer? A lover?
A poet?!

A poem that expresses a tireless love for the beauty of nature ("wings," "moon and stars") and human connection ("love," "a kiss," "a hug"). So well written emotionally.

Seems to bless us whether we ask for it or not. How greater would our experience be if worked consciously with good instead of so often against it?

There will be new avenues of experience and expectations opening every now and then, when life becomes tiresome. This helps us get over our blues. I don't mind being a dreamer, lover or poet...!

Your poem feels like a quiet conversation about staying hopeful and emotionally open, even when life gets tiring... There is always a new verse my friend...

Ooooh. This is so nice. Love how you put this all together, Joe. Of all those, I guess I am just a poet. Dreams went out the window!
