The Blue

After the darkness envelopes you
Nothing feels right, it’s all new
The earth around you is crumbling
Once on a high, you’re now tumbling
What was once smooth, is now cracked
The steps were taken, there’s no going back
The rain no more a pleasant shower
Now, a sound so strong, the dead cower
But a little bird’s still flying through the storm
Its tiny wings beat softly, alive against the norm
Grab hold to this tiny thing
Follow it, don’t let it go, cling!
For this is your hope, your light
It’s your key to a new world, vanquish the night
The sun will shine once again,
Its where, not when

Tehilla Rosenberg , Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
