Tim Smith Poet Sonnet

Listen to poem:

White Daisies Bloom

Past scenic trails once never touched
from hands of man no graces' clutched
near cloudless skies where beauty rests
in trees of maple songbirds nest

In rays of sun we find their tune
where lovers meet in months of June
holding hands with heart pledged vows
ring notes of faith when friendships rouse

Through all her wisdom hear the call
the hurdles cleared both large and small
warm winds of hope that bring forth peace
a walk through life in nature's crease

Shine in splendor white daisies bloom
Spill out glory in God's front room

Timothy Hicks March 17, 2016 at 7:37 PM So these are the infamous white daisies, Mystic was referring too. Lovely. I don't know, I really liked that walk through life in nature's crease bit .... like a spring niche. But God's front room is the best.

Andrea Dietrich March 17, 2016 at 6:41 PM a great eight syllable line sonnet, Tim. Is it for the spring contest? It is one to make us think of this beautiful time of the year.
