The First Lights of the Day
------------------------
(by Seabell)
The first lights of the day
When I first think of you
With passion, certitude and fear…
Strong tea and decadent cake
Vivid materializations of my
Stubborn rages and meek essence…
The liquid quality of the words
Surfacing the density of the night
The stretches of river yet to walk
The predictable and the unknown
The aim, the boat and its fragility
Amazing colors, shapes and names
Paths to discover, stories to thrill…
Simple pieces of a simple mechanism:
Life intensely lived, words, you and me
(These are a few of my favorite things.)

Not sure if I had to link to the theme but I have, anyway.
It seems to be a week for mirror images. Magpie Tales prompt has a mirror and I just took a "self-portrait" in a gazing ball.
All brought back memories which required being expressed.
what a beautiful poem you have shared. Sound of music is one of my favorite movies. sharing an old poem, couldn't come up with a new one.
Mine is kind of an atypical list, favorites or focal points identified by an abused child.

Mine is about what I really like and its all nature and music :)
Hope everyone likes it as who doesnt love mother nature ... :)
Thanks for giving an opportunity to write about them..
Cheers
