Endless Memories

Unspoiled Beauty

Note:
Just a little poem I wrote.  Inspired by William Cullen Bryants' poem Thanatopsis.
Enjoy & feedback is appreciated!

Listen

Do not speak

Just listen.

The benevolent smiles of the trees

Whispering in the wind

Churning the leaves on the forest floor

The pattern of life making itself known through her

The artists’ hands form the resplendence of the scene

Flaw to one pair of eyes

Is elegance to another’s

Lose yourself in the unbroken heart

Then find the crucial key

To unlock destiny

Then

And only then

Will the weight of the world disappear.
