Out
Thinking of parks, gardens, and yards..

Not a single minute of wonder
Not even a street to wander

Sitting in silence at home,
Not even a window to look out of
Not a single door to open

Imprisoned in the darkest place
a person can dream of

Just wishing I could have a glimpse,
*of what the world looks like
The book I picked was 'Literature' by Alice Walker.
Its wild in here

yet so peaceful

your love has made a forest out of me
Check the tag bookpoemchallenge for more info. The book I picked was 'Pig tails' by Scott foresman.

Hey everyone,

I'd like to propose a challenge.

Grab a book, any book, and open to page 49.
6th line.
5th word.
Make a poem, and use that word as its title.
Be sure to make sense, and relate the topic to title!

Tag your poems as bookpoemchallenge so I can check them out. I'll be sure to like, comment, add to collection, share the poems which I enjoyed reading.
Best of luck.
Please like and share this so it will trend and more and more people join on this lovely challenge!

Your presence lays within the smell of rain
and
all its transparent beauty.
God is closer to you than your jugular vein

Call me crazy
but I imagine
a world where we smile when we have low battery
because that will mean
we'll be one bar closer
.....
to **humanity
once said by a wise man.

I could write a billion poems
expressing how I feel
but not a single word
could make you truly
**understand

Do not hold my past against me, for it is not who I am
it is who I
*was

Everything is possible.
Just because you couldn't do it, doesn't mean it can't be done
it simply means
...
you gave up.

The smell
of a blown out candle
is a sonnet on its very own.
