Pristine Landscape

Situations come our way
where we don't understand what to say
we sit in silence in our mind
and the words we can't seem to find

Some days we find it smooth
to spill our thoughts and soothe
to do this is when
I find myself again

Today is a quiet one
it's been that way since it begun
I find it challenging to write my lyric
that may sound satiric

I'll rest tonight in deep escape
and tomorrow twill be a pristine landscape

Paul Callus Date: 11/27/2020 11:31:00 AM I have learned to take each day as it comes, Angela, and try not to worry about tomorrow; maybe it's one of the benefits of old age :) Regards // paul Login to Reply Angela Crabtree Date: 11/27/2020 5:13:00 PM I'm trying to learn to take one day at a time. Some days I do okay. Other days, not so much :)

Silent One Date: 10/25/2020 5:27:00 AM We all face a storm and it's how we deal with it that counts... Some become stronger in adversity, some fall apart... Great message of hope in your sonnet .. Login to Reply Angela Crabtree Date: 10/25/2020 11:09:00 AM Thank you, Silent One :)

Tom Cunningham Date: 10/25/2020 1:35:00 AM We often end up on a barren landscape not knowing what's up ahead but better days are coming with mountains, streams and flowers in abundance. We just have to learn patience. Tom Login to Reply Angela Crabtree Date: 10/25/2020 11:08:00 AM Thank you, Tom :)

Victor Buhagiar Date: 10/24/2020 10:05:00 PM Yes, there is always tomorrow. But not the the day after. Keep at it. ~~ Login to Reply Angela Crabtree Date: 10/25/2020 11:08:00 AM Thank you, Victor :)

John Watt Date: 10/24/2020 10:02:00 PM First off, I'm a big lover of the word 'pristine', happy to see it used in your title and final line. Secondly, loved your rhymes, especially smooth/soothe and lyric/satiric. Thirdly, the wisdom of finding rest and hoping for better tomorrows. Well done.
