A Peaceful Soul
This way or that way,
Nobody knows,
Maybe it's the way the wind blows,
Maybe it’s at the end of a beautiful coloured rainbow,
Or a long winding road with the birds singing and the sand in your toes,
Nobody Knows.
This way or that way,
Nobody Knows,
Maybe it’s the way the river flows,
Maybe its at the end of a meadow where the buttercups grow,
Or on top of a hill with a view of the world and a breeze on your nose,
Nobody Knows.
This way or that way,
Nobody knows,
Maybe it’s the way to where love grows,
Maybe its at the depths of your soul where the fires rose,
Or a tranquil place with a seat to ponder and bid goodbye to your woes,
Nobody Knows.
This way or that way,
Nobody knows,
Maybe lifes a pointless search of no shows,
Maybe it’s the place where abundance of love is bestowed,
Or an everlasting embrace with an unspoken promise of never letting go,
Nobody Knows.

- Comment from author about the poem: I have never written poems before but the last year has been very testing and writing has really helped me deal with my feelings, I hope that you like this and would welcome feedback and even ways or tips of improving would be very much welcomed.\r\nThis was written at a point when I had no idea what had happened to my much loved world and had been completely thrown of course and was desperately searching for a place that I could find some peace and happiness.

Wow, this is great hard to believe it's your first poem. I mean just keep being honest and let yourself write. It's great to get the feelings out. One spot were there needs to be an 's when it said "maybe it way wind" part. But I am terrible at spelling so hope you enjoy writing and write more.
Thank you, that is very kind of you to respond so positively. It was a typo so I have now edited it. I have looked up about poetry today and its quite complicated when you get into the technical side of it... I gave up and thought I will just write what I feel and hope it equates to a poem. I have 5 more that i have written and will post at some point. Many thanks

To me the best ones are the ones from the heart. The hidden feelings, thoughts, those things. And well I can't wait to read them.
You're amazing at writing! I love this poem, keep on writing more:)
My advice to you, since you did request some, would be the same as to all young poets: There are rhymes and there is serious poetry. It is difficult to express from the soul, which is required in good poetry, when one is restricted by rhyming. Get in touch with your deep inner feelings and give it a shot. Keep writing, imnopoet!
As others have said just write from your heart and your Spirit, the best poetry is always create from them. Good write and welcome to MPS.
