Windmill (An Original Poem)

in #poetry10 years ago (edited)

I see a windmill

outside my window

I watch it spin till

clouds rise high in rows

And the storm dwindles down

and dies, dieing slow


I see a windmill outside my window

I see a simple town, lives lying low

They watch the windmill now, 

eyes widening so

And once the wind's still 

how I've tried to know

Why watch the windmill outside my window?


I hear rhythm-full sounds 

while flying doe

Leap across dismal grounds 

riled by dingos!


Why watch the windmill outside my window? 

When words can fall like a symphony of rain!

Let them fall were they may!

Don't be under a trance!

The greatest beauty on earth

Is the beauty of spontaneous laughter!

Live long so life may feel short!


I will not watch the windmill outside my window!!!

Sort:  

Remind me of seeeing windmills on our farm.

Glad I could trigger the memory! There actually is a windmill outside my window on this apple orchard. Hard not to watch them they are pretty! :D
