Notice the Pieces

Gander your gazes not afar mountain like a fool that searches the distinct Youth that have uncovered a fountain pen poetry and prose not succinct When you blue drip only foam oceans You’ll dismiss the pollywogs in ponds No fancy hocus pocus nor potions rather a palm tree for its fronds Those who seek but a fraction of whole dig tiny granules that unearth the real The wise view not a saddened soul rather each impurity that made it feel Responsibility is cradled in unbottled ink Smattering small pieces that make one think

Loved it Rhoda, have been away a lot of late and missed this gem, I've tried a few sonnets of late, maybe not Shakespeare lol. But I like to try new things. Great message in yours. Tom

Nicely penned, Rhoda, inspiration can come from the smallest of places, a good message that we sometimes forget. John
