Saddened Mind

Passed by every sunrise
Flowers, when in bloom
All the autumn colours 
For living in the gloom 

All memories now lost 
Nothing to retain
Gone with the past 
While standing in the rain

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

I was wondering what had become of you, Ana, and stopped to check out your posts. This poem is tinged with sadness. Hope all is well on your side of the fence. ~ Regards // paul

That’s so sweet of you Paul to check in on me :) I am good just super busy with work. I sure do miss the soup and have all intentions of getting back into writing some more poems and reading others too! In fact, I think I’ll start today! :)
