Drove out 'fore daybreak
stood by the river's edge
watching the water flo
like it was heaven's ledge
I inhaled the history
as I am apt to do
swear an angel passed
looked just like you.
By then I had dumped
the debris my soul carried
after sunrise, I was filled
no longer need I tarry.
Drive home felt good
your smile lit the place
soft hum of the engine
put me in your grace.
When I reach that
quiet place as I do
its a known fact
can't help but think of you.

Very pretty words and photo. :)
Good evening..........This poem is quite beautiful I really liked this poem. You are a wonderful poet. I am glad you wrote this poem........THANKS
Spencer - this is peaceful, written softly from your magic pen and every word felt.
Spencer, you're poetry brings about such emotion from all who read it, how are we to respond to something that simply takes our breath away?

Oh I could so do that, and I suppose I have somewhere in time.
Thank you.

Hi Spencer,
I love that picture. did you took it? it's beautiful.
I am always taken away by your poems. When I read them, it feels like stars to me.
Gem :-)
Actually this is a picture I took at Busch Conservation Area, Lake #33. One of my fishing spots and quite places.
Thanks much
Spencer
