Thoughts: Poetry (Random verses)

Layers
Clothes can be bulky
Winter clothes are that way too
Dress warm for winter

Snow falls cold and white
Snow, loved and tolerated
Plows push it away.

Blizzards blow and blow
Chilling wind, icy snowflakes
Fireplace feels nice.

Blizzards seem to blow and blow
With chilling winds and icy snow
Shovels, hats, gloves and more
Children don to hit the door.
Snowballs, snowmen, forts and winter sun
Adults don't seem to see the fun
Just the shoveling that must be done.

Cherry blossoms pink
Decorating the Spring day
Sign of winter gone.

Birthdays come yearly
Some are easy, some are hard
Cake is nice to eat.

Today I'm sixty
I've seen history being made
Time passes quickly.

The morning mist kissed the rose
Leaving diamonds in its wake.
The sun arose, its beams reflecting off the diamond drops
Making the garden seem a fairyland.

Books
Marching in orderly file
Topically or by author
Dewey decimals screaming to be heard
What do you thing they do when no one is watching?
Perhaps living out their stories like a silent film.

Imagination
Creativity gone wild
Wonderful color

Leaves falling from sky
Being painted by early frost
Color bursting forth.

Tears
Emotional blood
Falling downward unbidden
Hemorrhaging pain; expressing joy
Tears

A child with open arms
Bids one to give it hugs
Children so innocent and trusting
Don't realize how  wonderful they are
It is so sad that hugs become fewer as they age.

Love
Hearts aflame
Burning with passion
Bursting with emotional fireworks
Love

Leaves
Turning color
Expressing artistic freedom
Breaking loose to swirl
Leaves

Art: The integration of creativity and imagination.
