Notes About The Poem

Image- Imgur.com

I Never Knew

Some say- a paragraph holds them deeply,
not even the slightest touch can make them fall

                  Words hide from me

    Some say, the melody within takes them there,
          - the loudest noise will never waiver the tune

Words find me soon

                        -------------------------

 Some say- moments, emotions are against the wind,
    no one feels me, my mood- the tangling of a Sonnet

                        Words are lost again


Some say, my thoughts are visible, yet they seem hidden from view
       the rhymes, the discovery of it all-  no one really cares

 
                           ---------------------------------
                          Words whisper softly to me


     When the time right, that paragraph will find you
a Sonnet, a melody, the rhyme- a part of your memory
  
   
        Those that wish to see your poetry . . . 


              A sigh gently escapes
                  “I never knew”

Thank you for reading this simple scribble of mine and leaving your thoughts upon it. I am happy that I can be here. I am smiling with your thoughts. :) Hugs, Brandy

I love your words about words, and how they sway in a slow dance with the soulful music of love, mystery, rhythm, and melody. There is much mystery to the human soul, which is why no words can ever define it exactly. Just as a painter or photographer never FULLY captures a sunset or a waterfall. Yet we try, and the trying is what we call poetry. "To him who has ears to hear, let him hear". Beautifully done, my friend. Thoughtful and evocative. Warmest wishes ~ John

This poem is to encourage those that never knew- so they know just how incredible their Words truly are. I appreciate you and your encouragement- your friendship. Thank you for being You. Many blessings my dear friend. :) Hugs, Brandy

Lovely writing, Brandy; i think love poetry, or poetry about the heart expressing tender phrases that charm out of us a warmth of affection, is the best a writer can offer. Unlike the good physician, "Do no harm" the poet/poetess goes one better, rolls away the stone from the tomb of loneliness and despair -- exposing Humanity's often dreary soul for comfort and true healing. Oh, another Fav!

Writing from the heart places every emotion upon the page- making the writer vulnerable. I am very careful with my heart. This poem is one of encouragement. Your thoughts are so beautiful and uplifting. Thank you Joe. I appreciate your kind words. Thank you for placing this in your favorites. :) Brandy

Getting peeps to really see and the rare times they do, to fully understand and care. I am always looking for those high quality peeps. I would say a needle in a haystack, but in my experience it is more like a needle in a field of haystacks. Enjoyed reading your poem multiple times.

Sometimes it is difficult for me, someone that truly cares and understands- to lift a heart and encourage. I do the best that I can. Once you find a high quality peep in a field of haystacks- don't let them go. A rare find indeed. Thank you Rob for reading and feeling the meaning behind these words of mine. My best to you. ~ Brandy

Your words speak softly to me, Brandy. Only those that wish to see your poetry will see it, to the rest you don't exist. Keep writing your beautiful thoughts my dear friend. Hugs, John

My heart has a hard time wrapping that thought around it. "to the rest you don't exist" Leave a word out there and someone will find it. They always do. Thank you John for your thoughts and your support. I appreciate you. Hugs, Brandy
