I Am Reading People Today

I am reading people today. Their faces, their smiles, their twinkles and flashes. Their energy in the form of art, and poetry. I am reading everyone I can get my eyes on. I am reading poems, and stories. I am reading their lives, and their loves. I am relishing their heartfelt journeys. I am vicariously living in imaginations not my own. I am reading people today. On the street, at work, in my house. They all want to be read, cherishing my time. I am spending my time on the Internet, making friends All around the world, on poetry sites, Through texts and emails. Through face time. I am reading people today. Their faces, their smiles, their twinkles and their flashes. Written 2-02-2019 Contest: Premiere Iii Sponsored by: Rob Carmack

Had to "fav"; I like this idea: "I am vicariously living in imaginations not my own."

Well, I don’t usually say much directly but I did like this poem. I must say I do read people a lot, so what you write makes sense in many ways. Poetry is an art. I always like to make mine a little enigmatic since I usually write from my subconscious mind :)

Steve, what a glorious comment. I am playing a drum for you and Trixie my muse is doing cartwheels. That is a thank you.
