White Wolf Poet Sonnet

Notes About The Poem

The Winds of Time - Collaboration With Darren White:

The winds of time settling in one's own mind,
Clarity of the past will dissipate,
In the winds that blow you may be inclined,
To find yourself standing there with your fate.

Like the pollen in a flower, waiting,
For life without yearning would be shallow,
On thin ice we all find ourselves skating,
We must treasure every moment, hallow.

Soft bells will chime, a peaceful melody
Serenity inside, accept a life
Imperfect, yet with highs, with love, you see?
It's how we are, all we can do is strive

     And washing over you are waves of calm
     The peace you find inside a soothing balm

John Herlihy May 16, 2017 at 12:44 AM I am struggling to keep up with posting reviews and poems. So busy at work these days. Loved this from you both, wish I knew who wrote what. An utterly charming sonnet. I have been trying my hand at sonnets these days as well and hope to post them soon.

Heidi Sands May 13, 2017 at 9:06 AM Congratulations to the both of you for this inspirational poem to reach many :) Well done. Darren White May 13, 2017 at 9:35 AM Thanks Heidi, it's always wonderful to write together with Budgie.

Lisa Ricci May 13, 2017 at 5:39 AM Good Evening White Wolf. And yes Darren. Hi Penguin. To the both of you I say this is exceptional. Honestly. This is one that must be read out loud with emphasis and pauses between stanzas and thoughts. I can not put it in words, just know this has worth and value if you read back your words. So much of life is stated within them. Wonderful completely and entirely. Have a wonderful night White Wolf. Darren White May 13, 2017 at 9:35 AM Thanks Lisa, also on behalf of the howling wolf Budgie :) It's a very calming and peaceful poem, and I love it

Demetrios Trifiatis May 13, 2017 at 1:19 AM Your profound writing and deep philosophical thought makes me fear that the days of my status as a philosopher are numbered my dear frieds: WW and Darren, Darren and WW. A 7 to each! Darren White May 13, 2017 at 9:30 AM Thanks Demetrios, and I do think the compliment is nice, but there's no greater philosopher than yourself :)

Darren White May 13, 2017 at 12:20 AM As always, a wonderful collaboration with you Budgie :) I love this inspirational poem.
