Ever wonder
if we’ll wake up tomorrow
To find the blue sky
a cloud of ash
nothing to see
but darkness

Ever wonder
why men must prove themselves
Their egos, getting in the way
of making it right,
of filling the world
with pride…hope

Ever wonder
what will become
Of a nation
that keeps pushing God out
of schools, of work places, of life

Ever wonder
If we’ll just wake up.

The Fisherman

He sits on the dock
rod and reel in his hands
a staff, raised above
the rippling waters of the ocean

He adorns his hook
with a colorful lure
casting his line into the serene
bobbing and baiting, with a splash
he awaits that first tug

They pull against each other
until the mark gives up
and the struggle ends,
as he revels in his catch

Looking into the eyes of his conquest,
he unhooks the bribe, smiles
and gently lowers the fish back into the briny deep
and the fisherman watches as
the calm returns once again

Poppies In Paradise by Robin Maria Pedrero
To see more of this artist’s incredible work please visit her website
http://robinmariapedrero.com/

An artist’s vision flows

With the colors on the palette

Each brush stroke

Caressing the canvas

In a blaze of vibrancy

And muted tones

Joining in a masterful mix

Of a photograph

Only the artist can develop

Raindrops

Raindrops fall
between barren branches
left stark by Winter’s touch

A cloudburst
feeds the crocus
awakening from its icy slumber

A hint of color
returns to the earth
with the promise of Spring

Sunshine

lyscurtainA fiery essence, her flame draws you in
igniting your heart and soul
with a heat like no other

A ball of energy, reaching out
so much so that you cannot resist
the connection she feeds you

Powerful, yet so gentle
she gives and gives and
asks for nothing in return

A bright entity, she is a presence
above the norm, above the measure,
she is beloved by many

She is a star, shining so brightly
even darkness cannot dim her sparkle
She is my Sunshine
