Just some words - 1. Breathe deep

Breathe deep

of rain-drenched soil

of heated earth bathed by summer sun

of the young green things growing there

of this rich heady scent

breathe deep

this smell of life.

Sorry.. not paying attention to what's going on!
Aw this is a dugh poem ... :) I get to say that cuz Gary says some of mine are tim poems!!
Seriously though, this is lovely and it brings memories of the garden and the scents found there, and of buzzing insects and everything being all right with the world. Being in the garden with mum are some of my good childhood memories. Thanks for this dugh and I'm so glad you decided to give a permanent home to your poetry on GA.

I'm so glad my words evoked happy memories for you. My family is blessed with a number of "paint on canvas" artists. I can't do what they do instead I try to paint with words the things I see and simply hope that those impressions somehow work.

Thanks for your kind thoughts and encouragement to share my words with others. Namaste.

Such beautiful imagery. I can almost smell the damp dirt and new life in my garden :)

Congratulations on taking that first scary step and posting your first chapter. I think it's a smashing success :hug:

Thank you Lit. You were one of those who kept encouraging me to post my small writings. That support means a lot. I'm glad you like this.

Wow!!! I wonder why I never made any attempt to write anything on this situation. May be because of the enchantment in which my senses forgot the world itself to feel it. I loved that feeling every time. After reading your poem that feeling came to me as it is. That was a fantastic poem.

 

After all our effort to drag to the poets mob, has its profits. Such a mesmerizing poem. Loved it.
