I have observed brightly lit stores... window displays welcome with wide open arms. Kaleidoscope of colours, dancing to catchy music... adding on to the allure and charm. Droves of shoppers have identified this as their slice of heaven. Flagging retail therapy and finding their pocket of Eden. I have observed some laying down. Relaxing... unwinding... On patches of grass. They stare at the sky with much adoration, as wispy clouds float on by. These skygazers have chosen this to be their little slice of heaven. With the ground on their backs, grass between their toes and azure as their witness... this is their pocket of Eden. I have observed a couple of lovebirds, seated at a café... immersed deeply in conversation. In their own private universe, their own little bubble. Employing hugs and frequent pecks as punctuation. There's nowhere else they'd rather be. From their eyes I know, they've found their unique slice of heaven. In each other they've found their pocket of Eden. I have observed myself... I thought myself to be lost for the longest time. Seeking a place for the voice in my head that only spoke in rhyme. All is not lost when I finally found that place. My little slice of heaven. For almost a year ago today I decided on Hello Poetry as my pocket of Eden.

Pockets of Eden
I have observed brightly lit stores... window displays welcome with wide open arms. Kaleidoscope of colours, dancing to catchy music... adding on to the allure and charm. Droves of shoppers have identified this as their slice of heaven. Flagging retail therapy and finding their pocket of Eden. I have observed some laying down. Relaxing... unwinding... On patches of grass. They stare at the sky with much adoration, as wispy clouds float on by. These skygazers have chosen this to be their little slice of heaven. With the ground on their backs, grass between their toes and azure as their witness... this is their pocket of Eden. I have observed a couple of lovebirds, seated at a café... immersed deeply in conversation. In their own private universe, their own little bubble. Employing hugs and frequent pecks as punctuation. There's nowhere else they'd rather be. From their eyes I know, they've found their unique slice of heaven. In each other they've found their pocket of Eden. I have observed myself...
