Reflections Laugh At Our Blindness

Reflections Laugh At Our Blindness

She cool love's great fever
In with shades of true hope

What slides with whisperings
From the quiet edge of dreams

Therein she seeks to know
Secrets life has yet to reveal

Truth deeper that beauty's shine
Or sexy maiden's perfections

That which holds wanton desires
Or mysteries told around campfires

In her heart rests more love
But to whom, nobody knows

In Mother Nature's smooth pools.
Reflections laugh at our blindness.

Lady Labyrinth Date: 7/7/2023 1:44:00 PM I love this one. Particularly the last two lines. What her eyes could not speak her reflections smile with faith and humour.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 7/3/2023 4:32:00 PM That title line is brilliant . And I liked seeing it appear at the end of the poem Login to Reply Robert Lindley Date: 7/4/2023 5:40:00 AM Thank you, my friend. That was my first verse of the poem when I started writing but I decided it was to be my ending verse as it has more power when placed at the end. God bless.

Robert Lindley Date: 7/3/2023 1:58:00 PM From January 6TH 1970, came this my first prose. I was only 16 but I did a lot that year. All gone now about 70/80 of them.
