It's always refreshing to find new voices in poetry.
In GeorgeAnne Smith's "A Voice in the Night", the poems shared are ones of everyday thoughts,joys and trials of love and simple pleasures. With a gentle, easy to read style these poems will touch your heart and make you think. One of my favorites is "Nature's Gifts"
'A whisper upon unseen wind,
as a breeze gently blows
The quiet stillness of grass
in awakened earth, it grows
A gull on the wing, soaring
over the waves of blue
Palm trees stand tall, swaying,
dancing to the lovers woo
Sand dunes, white, deserts own,
in paradise complete
Rolling hills of greenery, grand,
mocking the droughts deceit
Sunset draws to steal the show
in hues giving way to night
Evening sky, a ceiling spattered
with stars, twinkling delight
Seek nature with eyes, now new,
breathe and feel it living
Hold it, caring deeply within,
tend this wonder, ever giving'
A colorful look at something most of us probably take for granted.
Filled with 75 pages of poetic inspirations, you'll be sure to find something you can relate to.
