Poetry: This Audience
Distant seagulls range
and fly
soar into the
morning sky
drift beyond
the cold
grim clouds
those testaments
those silent shrouds
calamities of
lovely ways
of retrospect
outside the haze
effortless they
seem to me
clutching wind
in revelry
and the sun
that silent sage
views afar
from on
his stage
this audience
of mellow flight
so we share
in this delight.
This is an excellent piece! Felt like I was there.
Thank you very much Carl. It’s nice to see someone actually digging into my older posted poetry. I enjoyed writing this piece
This is really, really beautiful. I read it three times and each time I grew a little calmer and became a little more present. You have a gorgeous voice and a wonderful way of connecting the reader to your words. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your appreciation. I saw two seagulls first thing this morning way way up high and it came to me suddenly. I love when I can write bmnature poems because I feel so at peace with it. I’m so glad that feeling came across to you
I agree. This is lovely. It does seem effortless and your choice of words I love. Although, I feel that way about a lot of things you write 😊
You’re always so nice and so supportive, it means a lot to me
You deserve high praise, Rob. You obviously work hard at your blogging and you are a wonderful poet!
Aww, you’re too kind thank you!
PS it means a lot that it means a lot! 😁
Simply beautiful, Robert! I’d love it if you would write more poems like this. 💙
Ok I will see what I can do! Thanks love
Just lovely Rob!
Thanks a lot christine!
Oh! I like this. Great rhyme and flow. Effortlessly done.
Thanks a lot I am glad you liked it.
I read it again !
lol
Absolutely wonderful. Love the poetry/words in this one.
Thank you so much, I am glad you liked it. Trying to get away from sappy love poems and do more on nature, which I used to write a lot about many moons ago.
I love sappy love poems. They make my soul happy.
Well, I’m taking a break from them lol
As you are entitled to do so. Just make sure you write one every now and again for more please :0)
Yes, you can take the love out of the man but not the man out of love. Hmm, kinda like that lol
Ooooo me too
