Blue Silence

Lorna



Blue flower in the vase

Sitting in the silence

Water is gone

But still the color carries on

Speaking to the quiet

Its blue flower words

As it fades away

And leaves the space

More silent that before

              If only I could figure out how to make them produce flowers at the TOP instead of the bottom of the plant!

                excellent!
                it is very meaningful.
                I have two cd's from
                simon and garfunkle.
                and when they play that song
                I feel mellow.

                    Beautiful write Lorna, the fading of flowers can be so wonderful.

                    The Sound of Silence, and all of Simon and Garfunkel's recordings, is great. It is one of the numbers that is sung in the Community Choir of which I am a founder member.

                    • Lorna

                      Thanks Andy! Would you ever post videos of your choir singing?

                    • MaggieF

                      Lorna, your poem reinforces mindfulness, being in the moment, it will make me look more closely at my own flowers. Beautiful. Maggie

                      • Lorna

                        Thanks Maggie........
