The quiet one

Alanis Morissette - That I would be good

The quiet one

A thousand stories, passing through me.

I am pouring out all my feelings

with unbounded imagination,

and never-ending thoughts.

 

To see behind the unseen.

To walk to the unknown paths.

To tell you what I’ve seen.

 

Everywhere I look I see miracles;

the beauty of nature,

and the trace of God’s hand.

 

I am embracing the wind and greeting the sun!

 

Everything I do, I do with everything I’ve got.

 

I am the quiet one, with eyes so bright and mysterious smile.

 

Bless your heart, bless your soul, dance the joyful dance of life!

 

A thousand stories passing through me.

But still my heart desires more;

to see behind the words,

to understand the true Meaning of Life.

Good to be the silence one.
"I am embracing the wind and greeting the sun!
Everything I do, I do with everything I’ve got.
I am the quiet one, with eyes so bright and mysterious smile.
Bless your heart, bless your soul, dance the joyful dance of life!"
I liked the above lines a lot. The sea, silence and the dance. Perfect place to find. Thank you Sarah for sharing the amazing poetry.

You are welcome dear Sarah.

Interesting and quite beautiful words: a very fine interpretation of those lyrics. You use the English language so well too.

Methinks most people would like to understand other's thought and words. However, perhaps knowing the true Meaning of Life would dilute its mystery. Perhaps?

Thank you. =)

It is hard to translate some of my poems which are written in finnish to english.

And yes, perhaps you are right. =) But still, I always want to know more. To do and to see more.

And that too, of course. However, i do enjoy a touch of mystery now and again.. tis better than housework! :)

[~Sarah~ Idríel The Fair]

And that's good. =)
