my heart beats with the sound
and fury of an ocean storm that rising from the bed of the sea
lashes ships and crashes into
the rocks.
I am open now.
I am ready for the sound of crashing water
the scent of burning trees
and
the quiet solitude as sipping water
I am opened.
Turning to face
what was.
to see
what could be
and then open to the world
i fade away
forgotten for today.
forgotten until I return.

do you ever look at an open flower and feel sad?

Yes

No

To answer the question, no. Flowers, from the simplest to the most elegant, spell only beauty. Even the flowers for the dead have quiet beauty in it.
Ocean storm, on the other hand, makes one realize that death always walks alongside us especially if one is caught amidst the sea.
there is a piece of the primordial sea within each of us. The flower represents the face we share with the world, the storm the sea within us.
For some reason, your poem reminded me of a stormy sea while travelling to Koh Tao in Thailand. A squall caught us amidst the sea ???
yes I wrote this while stuck on the boat in a very bad storm on the bay!
It’s a great song, dear friend … a little emotional or so to say
yes it is very emotional! it was composed about a year ago.
But this one is very new, my friend
it is pal, i still write poems just not as often now as I used to!!!
You’re really versatile, dear friend
thanks, as I get older I find I still have things to share!
Sadness has its corner in our heart, it’s the same emotion as all others and we should not fear to feel sad.
i find that corner sometimes in my heart – I like the way you put that!
I have so many emotions this time of the year I deal with, many things can make me even sadder. I am a work in progress but a new year is around the corner.
i feel like I am a work in progress as well!
A beautiful but a little sad song. If I’m not feeling well, I’m very sad about every little thing that matters.
yeah when I am down and not feeling well it is worse!
I understand everyone has a bad day ever
yes we all have bad days!
When I’m in my gloomy mood, I can feel sad for every little things 🙂
i feel that way sometimes, hard to shake the feeling!
