Purity

Missing image
gaze into my soul
give credence to my mind
simple view with no control
see my world refined

pools of wonder in my soul
reality of life unwind
love will now extol
with malice now entwined

amazing beauty shines
into the sea green depths
wonder now at these signs
order up your death

do you see the world unfold
or do you see it crumble
oh what judgments do you behold
can you feel the rumble

touch my hand and read my mind
life force I do impart
so much time to be maligned
hear my hearts own thoughts

    This is good... a lot about today and its society. I read a lot of poems like this on here... but this one was good! Rock on! xoxo Meg

    I love the border/background, I think it works really well with your poem. This write is well penned, a little strong perhaps, but theres nothing wrong with that, at least I don't think so.

    Good job and good luck

    I love this picture and the poem that you have placed with it speaks on the same measure of what my thoughts were when I first seen it! Great job mom and the best of luck

      Thank you sweetheart. You are right I am a very visually inspired person. sometimes I just write, but I can always pull from a picture more easily. Thanks for your kind words.

      Love you sis
