~Reflecting~

 



Gazing outside the window of my little world;

I ponder on thoughts of life, love and the universe.

Daringly I venture with assumption, my part in it all

as unanswered questions continuously multiply.

Lost in thought, time stands still, yet life goes on.

    a really good look at life and its always good to stop and stare and you saw this as a necessity for a poet and of course wrote this poem. a really good choice of picture aswell.

    This is a great poem. I really like the colors you chose for the background and text, it really ties into the picture. Good luck.

    Marvelous imagery. You take the reader many places with just a few well chosen words.
    Marvelous, Sweet Bel.
    Namaste,

    Wonderful

    "Time stands still, yet life goes on". How very true. I lost a good friend last week. She drowned in her basement during the storms in Seattle. It was as if everything just stopped when I found out, yet all around me life continued - a very surreal moment. Thank you for sharing this and best of luck to you!

    This is really awesome.. u r right.

    u know sometimes we feel that time stops-espcially when we are in a hurry, but time hadn't really stopped, we just think it did but the truth is life never stops. it goes on forever

    ~if that's what u mean by this poem~

    nyways, this is awesome.. keep up the good work...!!
