Green sits softly

Caring dove

Green sits softly on the cotton clouds 

the place where friendly flowers often rest 

above the talking trees 

not simply by their feet 

or at the distance 

but with the cotton clouds 

talking to that place of dove like peace 

that rest by the blue waves in the sky 

looking at the light leaves from a different angle 

Seeing the talking tree in a different light 

 

the green grass is now not just simply resting in one same spot 

she’s sitting wjth the cotton clouds 

even drifting as they move across the sky 

allowed to tenderly travel 

see the light leaves in a different light 

see the birds as they fly in the blues beside the sun

  • Comment from author about the poem: I think sometimes we can feel a bit stuck with how we feel and we just want to move away from that a bit . Been struggling today with some difficult feelings Least when we write we can focus elsewhere for a bit I just thought to write about the green pen I was writing with and the white paper made me think of the clouds

    A fine write dove. The green sitting harmoniously in Nature.

  • sorenbarrett

    A different perspective adds distance and scope to our view. Here the inverted vision reveals a metaphor of the mind that needs to step out of this world to see it. Most lovely

      Distraction can be a good tool. Poetry is my tool of distraction

        It can be yeah . It can be frustrating when we feel ways that upset us tho .
