Summer Sound(8), by ~~~~GLOSTARG~~~~ Subscribe to rss feed for <font color= ~~~~GLOSTARG~~~~ "> 

       
       I was so rudely awakened,
 
      Loud sounds filled the air.

     Was startled and jolted

    From a sweet dream so fair. 


         Threw off my covers,

        And put on my robe.

       Off to the backyard

      My limp body strode.


              This screeching differed,

             From any heard before,

            So I stopped to put on

           My shoes at the door.


                     I wondered what calamity,

                    This sound could bring,

                   With that in mind, 

                  Went to gather my things.


                            My eyes were fixed now,

                           A broken hose spew.

                          I knew what is was,

                         But not what to do!


                                   This roaring laughter,

                                  Which rose to the skies, 

                                 It was only children,

                                Just playing outside!

Hi Junior, Thanks so much! I hope this art work isnt too much! It is just my way of letting everyone on here know how much I appreciate them. For all of the time I have been this site, so many nice people have reviewed my poems, although I do not know anyone very well on here(maybe a few I do know well)... but I feel it's a warm, caring environment to share my poetic and artistic works here. God Bless You glostarg

This is only the first of your poems that I have read and it made me laugh so heartily! You are wonderful!

speechless, and not just for this poem, for all. You have amazing poems, they make me feel so peaceful because everytime I have a bad day (life hating says) , I would read one of your poems, and it would make me relize about my life and how I would want to live those moments on what you have wrote. However, I wrote a comment on this poem because I just moved from my "home sweet home", and this reminded me of the good times I have spent here. I was afraid that I won't have that feeling ever again and this poem gave me the idea. The Idea was about hope, and someday, I will find that feeling of my " home sweet home".

Hey Gloria!, It's been awhile. Grat poem. I've given it a top rating cuz it's apoem that makes you understand that many a thing in life that we're initially scared of turns out to be something that's part of our daily routine!. would appreciate your feedback on my new poem "Dead or Alive?" Luv Chuck
