This Wonderful Place

Bella Shepard

 

 

I’ve come to this wonderful place

Where no one has ever seen my face

Where they welcome here with open arms

A refuge from life’s daily storms

 

It is a place where new friendships form

And old ones abide so sweet and warm

Where words are valued and given flight

To reach the heavens where they burn bright

 

These wordsmiths always find a way

To brighten each and every day

With beautiful words and delicate phrases

They encourage each with heartfelt praises

 

It is to this place I’ve found my way

On what I consider my lucky day

A place where I may safely abide

This Place is My Poetic Side

                    Good write Bella.

                    • Bella Shepard

                      Thank you very much!

                        You gotta watch out for my (imaginary) dog, Fido, though on here. He barks fiercely at anyone not marking poems 18+, if they should be so marked! Also, watch out for my singing on here. I'm the world's, or MPSs, worst singer, so I say.
                        I talk some rubbish at times. You will think me being British and eccentric! lol.

                        • Bella Shepard

                          Not so, old fellow! I find a sparkling repartee quite refreshing and welcome. Thank you!
