Lonesome Poets Brook

I was by a cozy little brook Where the lonesome poets lay As I gazed into every nook For the thoughts there on display Looking into the water My eyes began to see a shine Wondering how many glances it took For me to see something so sublime Twas a reflection of a cloud With the sunlight shining through Sort of an angelic shroud With a beauty that was so true Sunlight shineing from its heart As it hovered over head Wishing for it never to part Slowly the clouds began to spread Though I will never forget that day By the lonesome poets brook With the beauty of the angel on display Being the only one given a look

Just beautiful! Your words flow very nicely with your rhymes. I loved the rhyme scheme you used. I write most of my rhyming poems in the same way. It seems to be a rare writing style. Very well done, Dan!....Thank you for the kind comments on my poem. It means a lot!

An artist at work, in the quietness of the moment and the beauty of his surrounds, very relaxing, peaceful and special. Thankyou for sharing your words. - Shaz xo
