My success
is based on feelings, clouds
so stick around
and bend the rays of the sun
my way
and to the poets here that surround!
Do not depart, clouds
I'm feeling good
and you are fluffy today-
you are the bright against the blue
the color on the black
the movement on the still
the texture on the plain
You know, I have no choice
but to look up at you, clouds
past the artificial flowers
from within the moist earth
I am buried in with poet friends
and family dear to me
who had no others,
who otherwise would be
"buried in the moist earth,
alone, forever."
Author notes
A thought in reaction to these lines from an AP poet dear to me:
The colors fading with time
Do you think of me?
Or even care?
An artificial flower
Did you place it?
Reflecting?
Buried within the moist earth
Will I be alone?
Forever?

The "alone forever" part is something that gets to me all the time ~sigh. Wonderfully penned sweetheart. What a beautiful heart you have to be inspired and to care for someone else's sadness.

much warm love in return!

You are a lucky man Wayne. I can tell you why... you are a nice intelligent silly man, but you have a heart as well. All these things made you what you are today. Beware not to become conceited about it. It's so easy to end up in that pitfall. "bend the rays of the sun my way and to the poets here that surround!" Beautiful! Anna.

This is beautiful son. Your words flow with such a sweet, tender softness. I really like this a lot. I like the gentle aura and reflection that you have created here.
