Doris Jamoner Poet Quintain (English)

Unnoticed

The world wants a torch
but I only wished to be a candlelight.
It gives dim light but will never scorch
Though it will never be a highlight
but it can be your hope tonight.

The world think highly of leader
but my eyes admire those who serve
Leaders may seems stronger
It is all because those who are willing to serve
Even if it will lead them to their grave


The world wants a raging water
But I only want to be in still
Does it even matter?
There is nothing more for me to fulfill
To become greater is what the world wants to instill.

Justin Bordner February 8, 2015 at 1:14 AM The world craves to own your success...to control your luscious flame...share what you can, and keep what you must Doris. We all serve passion...greatness cannot remain still Poetess. To be a true hope, now that is serving, and leading at the same time. A poem fit for a King or Queen. J.A.B.
