And Still more Poetry!

Nature

the orb of dew
left from last night
'neath the cool sheet of dark
with faint starlight
sits on a leaf
where it twinkles and shines
in the beaming sunlight
as a diamond from the mines.
nearby, a tulip
fresh from the ground
is a bright splotch of red
in greenery all around.
it stands out
from the dark of the dirt
and grows tall and proud
leaves perked and alert.
this beauty of nature
as you can see
makes people smile
including me!


Tell me what you think!

And More Poetry!

The day outside is warm and bright
But I still have this poem to write.
It takes up all of my free time
Thinking of words that could rhyme.
I want to go outside and read,
Yet to my will I shall not cede.
But look!  My work is almost done,
So I may have some time for fun.
It seems my work's done for the day,
Now I'll go out on this beautiful day!

Tell me how you like it!
