Do you like my poem about being a silly goose?!
Question: *****
Oh SISTER will you please
Take me by the hand
Let me show you
Where the wisdom lies
See the fishes swimming
In the rivers and streams
This is not a place to urinate
Oh BROTHER stand by me
And see what I see
Are the colors true
What do they mean to you
See the people
With money in hand
It is not all there for you have
Oh REFLECTION on the broken glass
How can I be this thing
Looking cross-eyed at me
With cheek lines cracking
See the way it separates
As you look for
The real you

I think each stanza speaks volumes of wisdom. Each draws you into the window and slams the pane down, locks all avenues of escape and makes you listen. This is painted picture. Thank you!
yeea it's very nice
It is great, TD. But I thought fishes cried and urinated in rivers and streams and that nobody noticed...
Sorry for being so trivial. I love the last stanza.
St 2: I don't exactly understand the last line. Is it silly me or is there a word missing? (to have?).
Alone i stood unnoticed
For who sees the wind stirring the oceans deep
Oh reflection of a thousand nights unspent
Weave the cracks of the broken glass
Until the twisted broken backs are unbent...
59 years under the belt!...:)
