I'm a Poet
My first poem I wrote at the age of eight. In primary school I received a lot of silver and gold certificates for singing and reciting poetry.
But here is one of my poems:
Just A Season
Was it in the spring
when you caught a glimpse of me
one little flower
among so many others
so the same
yet so unique in its own way
when you saw the dew drop
pooling up in my heart center
and by your touch
it fell to the ground
lost ...
Was it in the summer
when fields where overflowing with color
and I was part of the tapestry of God
a shade
a highlight
in a perfect creation
just a speck
seen from a distance ...
Or was it in the fall
when I was filled with seed
filled with the promise of life
multiplying myself
the fertile mind
with inspirational ideas
for the new generation
to carry on the circle of life ...
I think it was in the winter
when my dead flowers fell to the ground
my fruit spilled on the ground
my fertile mind was empty
and my life was already leaving me
to die
so that I can be reborn
in the new season in spring
reincarnated
and
anew ...
And maybe
I was just a season
a short one in your life
so that you could see not me
but the multitude beauty
of the Greatest Creator
working its wonders
through me ...

It is photo's like this that inspire me to write
that bring out the poet in me ...
