A Magnificent Day

Teddy.15


When, old is the day
and all day, has been grey 
the wind has howled 
like a wolf on the prowl 
tree's have come down 
much to squirrel's surprise
and even the ancient mouse
has met her demise
 
the wooded debris creaks
 
and all I can think?
 
Is this... 
 
how truly wonderful it is
 
to be a poet.

    Teddy I love this one. It is not only descriptive and full of nature but it speaks to me metaphorically That in our age no matter how bad life becomes that poetry makes it brighter. A most lovely and true statement

        Dearest Teddy, you turned a cultural fracture into a clean, steady lament… no shouting, just truth. The poem holds the weight of what’s been lost while keeping its feet on the ground. Love it, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

                    This is a gem my friend, who but the poet sees with such clarity. Reading it aloud it flows in beautiful rhyme, and the last 5 lines must each be spoken with a pause, each a beautiful reflection. Exquisite!

                    • Teddy.15

                      Your consideration of my scribbles truly humbled me dearest Bella thank you so much my dear poetic friend 🌹
