a silver forest holds every
slice of imagination created
by an inner desire to know
the truth of life and the
depth of love in a captured
heart
holding all so close can be
as terrifying as the moon
shadows of a dark regret
only a sad smile will reveal
the hidden lie

I seek out your poetry because I like it but also because I’m here to learn my craft. Every detail of the picture is in your poem...Observation is everything, when writing what we see.
Thanks for posting this.
Love, Peter
