to be able to tide every fall
to be able to drop and also pick
to be able to do this as if a trick
to be able to smile through all the thin and all the thick
to move slowly and yet be nimble footed and quick
to know when to war and when to stitch
to move and flow like a river without any hitch
to be cool and not cold
to be young when all grey and old
to be able to tell others see this is what the master told
and richness is not in paper and metal but in having a heart of gold
and then one evening
sitting under the sky watching the chikoo trees
to fly high with a smile
being content having walked the mile
with a twinkle in my eye
I shall say good bye. [comments] => 1 [counter] => 113 [topic] => 14 [informant] => whiteplacid [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DreamsandWishes )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
