Oh Sarah - Will I Find My True Love

Upon the second story balcony Around an old mosaic table top Sits Sarah alone with her thoughts Bright blues, yellows, greens and reds Sparkle with splendor in the first rays of morn Igniting endless inspiration The morning dew glistens upon the open field Another new day is here Will I find my true love today Is he really out there Will I find my true love today Will he ever appear Will I find my true love today That is the least of my fears With a simple silver cross dangling From her delicate olive-toned fingers She raises her misty eyes skyward and prays She prays for the sick, the needy, those suffering And gives thanks for all the gifts bestowed her The warm sun, the mysterious moon, and the stars above The fauna, the floral and even her little girls smile Trust she says, for there is a plan Even flightless birds sing a happy tune For beauty is not what we have but In the little things we see, feel, and cherish Will she find her true love today In spirit she already has

I enjoyed the flow of her thought processes--her wants, to the needs of others, back to herself--some gratitude, some longing...very real. Great write.

Well ontop of the usual beautiful poem, this is filled with not only love, but the wisdom of love, and the fear of never finding it, great write!

This poem describes the feeling many have gone through during a time of loneliness. The longing for a love. In the end, we realize we are never satisfied, we already have more than enough. I have felt this way before. I enjoyed the read Tim.
