What Poets See

Poetry is the discovery That the blueness of skies Hides there the diamonds That at night, bless our eyes. It is listening to the music Of butterfly wings, In harmony with the beat Of blithe flowers swaying. It is drinking the sight Only seen in the mind, The prism of rainbow's light, Such fullness to find. It is looking at life here By the number of scars, By the weight of the tears, Hopeful dreams seen afar. All rights reserved~~~Cynthia Buhain-Baello~~~06.17.13.
