My heartbroken friend.
Rid you of your fretful tears,
And watch as your heals mend.
Spill your thoughts amongst
My waves, wise intellectual.
Think of my flowing silence;
And rest ever so peaceful.
Share with me your anguish,
Young one of too few years.
Lie down and close your eyes; my singing
Reminds you of why you’re here.
Step to the edge and glance over,
Vengeful enemy of my past.
Hear my mighty roar; but know that
With time, all things have been laid to rest.

Many Woes of a River

Come rest by thee,
My heartbroken friend.
Rid you of your fretful tears,
And watch as your heals mend.
Spill your thoughts amongst
My waves, wise intellectual.
Think of my flowing silence;
And rest ever so peaceful.
Share with me your anguish,
Young one of too few years.
Lie down and close your eyes; my singing
Reminds you of why you’re here.
Step to the edge and glance over,
Vengeful enemy of my past.
Hear my mighty roar; but know that
With time, all things have been laid to rest.

I have many years, but this is very beautiful to me. Somehow the rivers and oceans remind me that no matter what or whom is lost in your life, it still goes on. It will forever go on, so we might as well deal with it and enjoy it while we are here. This is a beautiful, touching peice of work.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
