MY WORLD

my world has many colors like the prism;

the blue hues of glistening waters of greece

against the white stucco adobes.

dancing tap shoes of flamencos

while visiting in spain.

autumn hues of russian reds, gold, cobalt, greens, oranges and black co-mingling.

asian tastes of polynesian spices in the philippines.

safaris in africa witnessing the awesomeness

of massive mammals.

sophistication from the streets of champ elysees, sipping cappuccino

and i will have some creme brulee please.

or perhaps go to italy and sit on the spanish steps

with a cup of expresso. i will take along a cannoli

and count the steps.

while back at home reminiscing over a cup of joe

with a friend in tucson arizona.

after exchanging our love for art

i will read my mail from friends afar;

the outback to talk about the love

pocketed in the kangaroo’s pouch and discover

new zealand, the unfamiliar territory.

we share our secrets who have been there.

reading beautiful poetry like never before.

all the while being reminded

i have been blessed by the HOLY ONE.

you see my friends, my world has forever changed

since i have met all of you.

getting up each day having my coffee

welcoming me to another day with my friends

from the east, west, north and south.

upon dusk we say so long, see you soon.~~by lorilynn
