My biggest treasures
When I lift the layers
I find truth between
the pages. I catch
the pages. I catch
pure puzzle pieces and slot
them into places to see
part of the whole.
part of the whole.
I feel alive
When music moves me
it sends love letters
to my heart, silencing my
soul with sound
When music makes me move
pulling my strings
it sends love letters
to my heart, silencing my
soul with sound
When music makes me move
pulling my strings
I feel alive
When I walk,
nature is my gallery
nature is my gallery
The earth dappled with light
Silk mountains
a subtle glimmer on the lake
the trees sketching the forest
Silk mountains
a subtle glimmer on the lake
the trees sketching the forest
I feel alive
When I feel a connection
Exchange gifts of honesty
Unwrap satisfaction
jam-packed in words
jam-packed in words
the mystery of alchemy
that turns tears into laughter
I feel alive
I feel alive
the scent of coffee
the sweetness of chocolate
the secret of the rainbow
colour after colour
All these small things
are my biggest treasures
the sweetness of chocolate
the secret of the rainbow
colour after colour
All these small things
are my biggest treasures
I feel alive
My goodness this is beyond beautiful, Marja!💝 Especially love; "When music moves me it sends love letters to my heart, silencing my soul with sound."
ReplyDeleteHi Marja - that's beautiful ... I particularly liked 'When music moves me, it sends love letters, to my heart ....'
ReplyDeleteJust lovely - take care - just noticed it's the sentence that Sanaa picked up on too! All the best - Hilary

ReplyDeleteIndeed, Marja, the little pieces make up the whole. I love the ideas of music sending love letters to the heart and nature as a gallery.

I've a feeling the small things are going to become far more important, and I liked your closing paragraph a lot.
ReplyDeleteI love this walk through your world. Well done, Marja. Good luck as you collect your small treasures.
ReplyDeleteYour poem is a treasure. It speaks so well to our hearts and mind. Music sends love letters to your heart and your poem sends love letters to my ear.
ReplyDeleteYour refrain gives this poem even more beauty. Stunning, Marja!
