Welcome to my poetry pages!
My muse reads, writes, and speaks
the universal language of Poetry.
“Know Thyself.”
Please join me in partaking of the lotus flower...
Let us celebrate; life is for living, its poetry claims every soul. ~ Cynthia Gaines

The Oyster
The oyster is never hurt,
he has a thick shell which protects him
from everything, he is isolated.
The oyster knows none of the pain
of emotional communication with his environment,
but neither can an oyster know the joy.
