Somewhere

Somewhere…
There is a place
Shed tears become raindrops
Golden sunshine’s gleam never burns
Your face
Dark grief is overcome with joy
Colorful flowers bloom
Fed by fresh rain
…Somewhere

  2. Oh those tears, Linda. I love that you have ‘Shed’ and Fed’ rhyming at the start of the lines and the circular feel conveyed by ‘Somewhere’!

  3. Lovely words, Linda, so gentle. Funny but the first (and only) poem I ever submitted to the real toads prompt began with the exact words you use. I got bawled out for plagiarism, a couple of abusive comments, and the link was removed. That’s why I’ve never been back. Must have been a bad day for someone.

  17. Shedding Any Shadow
    of Darkness for me
    These Days
    Is As Close
    As A Three
    Minute Three
    Foot Space of
    Two Feet in a Spiral
    Dance or Perhaps
    Now Just Raising
    One Arm to the Heavens
    Within As Bio-Feedback
    of Thousands of Miles
    of Spiraling Dance
    Will Automatically

    Share TotAlly Free
    Sort of the way
    Words Will
    Dance too
    When
    Flow
    is the Feather
    And WinD oNE..:)

  21. Looking this, Linda.
    One of two places I’ve found:
    1. Where lost things are (kudos to the new Mary Popins movie we took youngest granddaughter); or
    2. Somewhere over the rainbow. That I’ve also found (search my other blog).
    Lovely, Linda

  26. Lovely, positive–beautiful thoughts of a somewhere.
    In regard to the comments above, I did think of the song “Somewhere” from West Side Story–but just in the way that things tend to remind me of songs–not plagiarized. 🙂 Audra McDonald does a beautiful version of the song.
