QUIET STORM

Silently it billows

Like soft, feathery pillows

Punctuating the clear, blue skies,

While surreptitiously it belies

The turbulent interior

Of the serene exterior

Of this always shifting,

Forever drifting,

Endlessly searching,

Not so wise old

Hapless soul.

 

And like the clouds,

So too internal shrouds

Eventually

And temporarily

Dissipate, and a moment of calm

Does permeate the invisible, quiet storm.

A discerning young man, I see. Watching a parting in the stormy sea called our future; but always understanding what the invisible storm is telling us........... It is obvious despite the lenses; your vision is clear and may your quest end successfully. Gosh, young man, you truly give the meaning to a 'man of all seasons'....

conscious, A true poet with strong verbs to cast a storm about and ample imagery, rhythm and rhymes. You portrayed so much in such a short piece and often that is difficult! ginga

Thank you so much for the feedback. I really appreciate it. Sincerely, Carlton

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
