Mystic Rose Rose Poet Rhyme

There Is Peace Even In a Storm

(Vincent VanGogh) 

When the clouds tend to topple over each other 
hugging the sun away like a sister and a brother 
When the water ripples and storms then calms 
caressing seaweed and fish without any qualm 
there can be peace found inside your rudder  

When your sailboat glides away without fail 
and leaves no ocular light on your frail sail 
Remember,  the sea knows how to make tame   
it will gather you to its womb like a small frame 
even on stormy days when ocean liners assail 

You can survive...

Sally Eslinger December 5, 2021 at 9:00 PM Hi! As lovely a poem in sighting and faith as I have read in weeks. I love this poem. I lived in Chicago, a block from Lake Mich, where I saw sailboats and storms. Grew up in NJ near the ocean. Love Bible where the disciples get upset and Jesus shouts Peace! Just love your Tumbling Clouds! Blessings, Mystic!

Gershon Wolf December 4, 2021 at 7:23 PM This poem is as pretty as a picture, and as deep as the ocean, Mystic. I especially like 'it will gather you to its womb.' Kudos, Gershon

Blessings, Paulette Mystic Rose Rose December 3, 2021 at 6:41 PM Mirrors of peace I feel exuded by you, yes I love Van Goph's paintings, they have soul, thank you for the kind visit. :)
