Perception

Darkness looms and clouds appear, a search for choices no one near. A door is shut, or so it seems... then suddenly, perception gleams, a new way out! Rains appear and shadows fall, and in time, a feeling small, begins to lurk within... then prayer conceives a new perception, once again. Rains continue on a theme, of hammer blows, an endless stream. A wear and tearing of the heart... until an ending nears. The time it passes, birds still sing, and once again perception brings the dawning... of a brighter day.

Dear Carol, Thank You for writing to me. I need to read your Poems and begin submitting mine. I just retired teaching Music in Arizona for 27 years, so I now have some time to look into publishing some of my writings. I look forward to your comments. Sincerely, Robert E.
