Some Words to Get You Started

A.N.- I was asked to write something holistically happy and bright. This is what I gots.

See if you agree.

"There's somewhere I'm going to,"

The man said to the sea,

To the wood wide-spacing the pier,

To the white hairs on his head and forearms.

The bright yellow sunshine,

Fell on his unhindered blue eyes,

And the Blue of the ocean answered him,

In quiet sweeps,

A smile carving and running through the wrinkles,

Mapping his brown face.

~

The Answer,

The Future,

The humming of his mother rocking him to sleep.

~

His dark, deep pupils ran over,

Growing and expanding,

Taking it all in,

The Blue. the Sun.

~

The sting in his lungs at the end of the street and ooh it feels good!

His father head-bent at the telescope in their front lawn.

~

The waves drew back,

An indention forming in the water below the planks.

~

The velvet smell on her neck,

As she drew away

~

The Blue received him wholeheartedly back,

The Sun as witness.

-

In it he heard,

The laugh of a woman carefree in summer,

And he met Love.

And all the words he did not have to speak filled everyone else's heads like a fever.
