Beneath emerald leaves
I stand and gaze
Upon a hidden glade
Where tiny bluebells laze

An azure tide
Of sleeping flowers
That doze in dapple shade
And pass away the hours

I dare not move
Nor make a sound
To disturb the flowers
That coat the ground

What bluebells dream
No man can say
Is it more perfect
Than this sunlit day?

I yearn to share
The bluebells' sleep
To share their dreams
In slumber deep

While on holiday in the Lake District in England, I came across a patch of bluebells in a wood. I was inspired to write this. Feel free to tell me what you think :) (Smile)

ps: Go to the Lake District ;) (Wink)

very lovely, I love the rhyming, surprisingly, you expressed yourself VERY nicely, nothing seems forced, but the only suggestion I ahve to make, is cut the words from the photograph, and crop it, I think the words take away form the photo.. maybe make them more petite or seomthing. whatever. awesome words and pic!
Very very fresh and tender...

Tell u the truth, I am captivated by the picture, without realising it is for a poem. LOL
Just beautiful man, the Force is strong in you. Your powers of description is second to none.

Hey...very nice :) (Smile)
I like the sound of your poem...your choice of words... :) (Smile)
lovely poems. i don't get bluebells around here, so was quite jealous. :) (Smile)
very very good :) (Smile) i really like this one. the structure is there, and easy, and the words are laid on top of it displaying their beauty... one of my favorite of the ones you've done :) (Smile)

faith is being sure of what we hope for, and certain of what we do not see.
