Solaris

I’ll fashion a world in the universe
Animate life in my rays traverse .

I’ll creep into open forest glades
Fold and unfold the shadows and shades.

I’ll sprout the soil after a storm
Illuminate life the moment it's born.

I’ll rise above the highest mountain
Cascade a wondrous diamond fountain.

I’ll catch the raindrops and hold them tight
Refract a rainbow for your delight.

I’ll Sparkle the planets on starlit nights
Create abstract atmospheric sights.

I’ll tell the moon to blow you a kiss
To lull you to sleep in heavenly bliss.

And I’ll give you a home in the dark space
Share my light with the whole human race.

Mand, imo you could be

Mand, imo you could be making a lot of money with your poetry, design your own set of cards (do you have a photographer, artist friend?) to send to folks for/on any/every occasion either hard-copy or net click& email form. This is after all 2010 and except for the strictly inspirational, and humourous ones, there's really nothing for those who look for something good and off-the-beaten-track. This is not a put-down, it's an honest critique given by a poet who has been published in many venues, but has never made much *money* in that endeavor, as most poets except for the rare great ones such as Bukowski, Angelou and the ever-high-profile performance artists. Your poetry has already proven to appeal to the masses (a cross-section here at Neopoet). ~Anna "Just as what you dream is your own and no one else can observe it, so the world you see is your own." ~ Nisargadatta

Lawksy to be calle a LADY! That's not something I associate with

Ann of Norway Lawksy to be called a LADY! That's not something I associate with my own image of myself!!!!! I curtsey to your words with all the grace I can muster however! In fact now you mention it, it is you who have the air of a lady, you don't look cowed in your photograph, but you are not a snooty lady, one with a smile for everyone and warm I can see that too, a real motherly nice person. Thank you my lady Mandificent love from your lady grace= Ann (old Hannah from Hebrew I think!)
