Noticing
In wonderment I walk with the day
billows blowing
noticing not,
a beginning nor an end
lost in the mist of the rain
I pause at the crosswalks
filled with children
on their way
not knowing
life from a game
smiles yield,
flowery umbrellas holding
the rain
and a world at bay
glistened eyes overcome
and I see their mothers
dreams, heartfelt nights
tireless songs of glee
intrepidity
the will amid the worry
cars turning left
moving right
no wrong in sight
the beginning to an end
they're at their end
I see youth in their eyes
glazing over moments
years/tears
it's not the end
I greet them
noticing
all that beauty
bellowing
silently from within

I read of beautiful innocence
traveling along their path
knowing very little of what's to come
I am probably off the the mark here
but either way
Beautifully spilled, Brother

Tim this is a wonderful tribute to motherhood.
not knowing
life from a game
This is a perfect observation of children, and that final stanza is very moving.
Well done.

dearest Tim you have a beautiful heart
and the eye of a true poet
you see so much of what everyday people miss

my eyes have been glazed...
powerful write...

Damn powerful ink Tim...captures the human being in its natural state and the beauty of the child before all is lost in adulthood.
