I surrender..

I shall always be an art lover.

Daydreams slip

through gazing minds,

in weary moments of the day ..

 

glimpses of kindness

and serene smiles

adjust the bigger picture again ..

 

 

 

 

"I surrender to

all the beauty

that which I see

amidst images

of distorted lives."

I am stunned by how beautiful and well thought out this poem is! The message it delivers is one of the most positive and uplifting I have ever seen in a poem, and the picture you included really adds extra spice to it! I don't know any other way to say it, this is truly amazing! :) :)

YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH YOU MADE MY HORRIBLE DAY BETTER! THAAAAAANK YOUUUUUUU:')

[DoormanDan]

Anytime! And it's nice to know that I was able to help in someway! :)

Much appreciated 😁

I like the space some of the lines exist within.

But then, I'm partial to suggestion more so than conclusion.

Nice work.

[Daydreamer]

Thanks! I'm sorry I don't understand your suggestion?!

[Sleiman Azizi]

I think that space is more important than words. Many poets tell you directly what they feel. That's okay but I believe that suggestion is usually more powerful.

[Daydreamer]

Suggestion about how to feel/do?!

[Sleiman Azizi]

Sorry, what I mean is that suggesting something group poetry is often more powerful than telling it up front.

[Daydreamer]

I guess, as well

Here is a true poet's mind at work....

Your words in this poem have the power to renew corrupted faith and hope, even in the most pessimistic people (me). I don't find that in a lot of poems. I must admit you did a great job. Your words are very brief yet they carve deep meaning into us. Beautiful. Well done!

Do you know how much this means? I'm a "details" person, I feel, and contemplate every single thing around me... And I'll ponder upon your kind words for sure! A beautiful "THANK YOU" to you!🌹
