Us
The poets on this site
All individuals we are
Some, even neighbours, but many from afar
We look through different eyes
Our brains have different thoughts
But we all endeavour and shine
What we write are never naughts.
 
We come from all walks of life
Unknown to us all
But from what we write and read
We, all walk tall.
 
Expressing words to share, to understand we learn
To appreciate our others, absorb their internal therm
To see their reason, no need to reason ask
What spurs us all on, is to complete our written tasks

Wonderful write, James... so poignant and so true... luv your particular brand of poetry and your versatility... Linda-Marie... My Carousel poem shows what a romantic girl I am and I envision this into reality some day... its my favorite ride... just read Carolyn's Searching for a Soul Mate poem and she has totally said it all for me... I guess I have to move to find my Knight in Shining Armour ... keep at it James... Go Yankees .. Linda-Marie

Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment James. This is a beautiful poem and makes me miss the site even more. I am hoping in a week or two things will calm down a bit before they get insane again. I hate this whole moving process and am beginning to lose it. :( Will be back as soon as we empty this house of 20 some odd years of accumulated, well, stuff. Blah. Take care & thanks again. Love, Shar
