Glisten

Nicholas Browning

My intuition says to me,
"Wouldn't that be grand?".
Numerous personalities all cheer with a smile,
Yet they sit, while I stand.

 

Thinking of a passage that might be held in awe;
I take a recital from theirs, pondering further.
Delightful it seems!
Such a lovely idea, why didn't I first think of this?

 

I seize a chair;
Basking in new-found bliss.
Tranquil, burden lifted, my thoughts glisten,
As I reminisce.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Okay, so I promised someone that I would make a more simple read for the next one! Here it is, I hope you enjoy. Just a note about myself: I take writing very seriously. Its the only art I've ever been granted the skill to use, so it means a lot to me. I try to write each poem better than my last, but as I'm sure you all know, writing a masterpiece doesn't just "happen", it takes a lot of time. haha. So while I think of another really creative story for you guys, here's a little something to pass the time!

    Ohh, if it's too complicated we (well, me anyway) won't understand it! A fine write N.

    • Nicholas Browning

      The chaos takes over, sometimes it's hard to control. haha. You know, the whole thing about an artist having to make every scribble perfect. That's me! Thanks for stopping by Orch, and thank you for the words!

        Thanks N. Not that I aim to produce 'trashy' poetry, or 'that'll-do' type of poetry. But I rarely spend over-long on my poems. I take thought; what rhymes; etc, seeing as I choose to write rhyming poems often, but not hours on end. There's no rules to it though, if people want to take ages over a poem.

        • Nicholas Browning

          I completely understand. I like simple things. If you have the skill to describe something in a simple way and get your point across, then you have a wonderful thing indeed. I'll be reading some of your work shortly, so prepare for some feedback.

          • orchidee

            Thanks N. You can sing quite a lot of my work too! heehee. If you fancy singing, and know the tunes.
            A tip - I don't mind 'marks out of 10' on my poems, if you wish, but some folk don't like it. I can understand that!

            • Nicholas Browning

              Religion is a touchy subject for me, with all respect. But, I do enjoy poetry of all kinds. If the words sing to me, then I shall sing back. Haha, I might try out the marks out of ten thing. I usually just try to be descriptive though. We'll see how it goes.

            • Cyprian Van Dyke

              This is a delightful read! The rhymes and the word choices made the readers eyes glisten and lips smirk. This is inspiringly composed! Tyfs!

                And I will reminisce about your poem for a while!
                Beautifully written and thought provoking. It shows that you take writing seriously and that you have the skill.
