Poets

Poets live within a soul Scarred by history Then sweep all sorrow from their heart To leave a sweet memory Sunlight spills serenely Lights the trail of memories Rain falls soft and silently And cools the warming breeze

Thanks, Andrea. I have been rummaging through my 'unfinished poems' file. I was able to find bits of things that allowed me to put this little piece together. I think there may be a few more good poems in all those scribbles! ...Fran
