Emeralds Of Empathy

She reads..eyes see
Mind wanders to
Places never seen
Across the Universe

She feels sunlight upon her
Warming her soul
Smiles as a snowflake
Kisses her cheek, a raindrop- cleansing

She dances 'round a fire
Embers glow bright
Golden orange- glow
Making her heart sing

Watching in awe she sees
A baby take it's first breath
Tears gather as she sees-
Babe taken too soon to Heavenly Gates

Neath' the twinkling stars
The wind carries her
With gentle ease
Across distant shores

Wind unwhirls - she is 
Planted upon solid ground
Frozen and cold
Feelings catch- someone's pain?

Pain stings-razor cuts
Bleeding upon her sleeve
Please, please there
Is another, yes, another way

Write it- write it
The pain, write it away
Press lead hard against paper
Strike the keys let words bleed it away

Within her she feels that ache
Of a first broken-heart
Pain so deep
Cutting like broken glass

The smell of daffodils-
She senses a first love
A first kiss , magical
As an eagle soars-lavender scattered skies

She reads, sees, feels
Feelings overwhelm
Seeing the Planet's beauty
Through the eyes of a poet

For those who see Nature
May it always be
Those who grieve
Tears pray dry in light of day

Young lovers, old
May love stay true, strong
Never may there be a wrong turn
Love is a gift, embrace

Young, old, happy, sad
Shine on- your colors are golden 
Your feelings are mine- through it all
Love transcends space and time 

Author's Note

Have been reading many wonderful poems/stories .. this is not grand but i wrote and writing something not so grand is better than nothing.. 'nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'..(song popped in) Wrote this with a house full of noisy people and barking dogs... sorry for the quality- i know it isn't stereophonic more mono . Still I take something with me from everything I read all your words they do touch me .. I see and feel ... thank you all .

So a year ago i wrote this - not much since.... someone tell me please how to rid one's self of writer's block??

This took us on a beautiful journey with philosophical considerations and tones. Simple and open with a great blend and mix =D

You words are beautiful, in some places so sad. What you've written is full of caring and empathy, and your vision of seeing inside other's pain is incredibly touching.

Seems what you understand from other people's work, you give back a thousand fold .. thank you, thank you. (You)
