    Poem Commentary

    Describing all the simple pleasures in life....the things that are just 'wow'....!

    Wow

    Wow, is the great blue sea,

    The never-ending ocean of hope and love,

    Though sometimes it stops at your toes,

    The way it shows your reflection is the key.

     

    Wow is your family,

    Or you stand alone like a lone maple leaf in a forest of oak,

    Staying with you through good times and bad,

    Bonded with the power of love.

     

    Wow is a waterfall,

    The hopes and dreams falling and disappearing,

    Collapsing as it falls and spills,

    Yet, the mist forming some new ones,

    Marbled with love and hope.

     

    Wow is the beat of music,

    Soothing as your eyes cloud to gray,

    Yet joyful as it unwinds,

    Making everyday a special day,

    Music is simply divine.

     

    Wow is anybody put together,

    As they hold inside a ocean of feelings,

    The waterfall in them works day and night,

    And they let it all go with a single beat of music,

     

    Wow is the bounce in your step when you help someone,

    As you lift their hearts to the sky,

    Yours follows along…

     

    Wow is how you close your eyes to darkness,

    And when you open them real life comes gushing back,

    Though sometimes you don’t want it to.

     

     

     

     

     

    Wow is the trust a girl has when a boy

    Dips her in a dance,

    Balancing only on a hand,

    But for her it might as well be the whole world.

     

    Wow is how some people live in writing,

    Others have their art paradise,

    As they block out the world,

    And create a masterpiece.

     

    Wow is the cherry tree,

    It blossoms while you are happy,

    Droops and loses its presents while you are sad,

    How it can be your friend in good times and bad.

     

    Wow is the great big sky,

    It’s blue and calm at times,

    Black and raging at others,

    It seems like the endless paradise,

    Or a friend who’s turned his back on you.

     

    Wow is the snow bird,

    Its path is unforgettable,

    The glory and joy it brings,

    It takes back when it goes,

    As the wisps of cotton come flowing down to earth,

    Green starts showing up,

    It gathers up its presents, gives back one sad look.

     

    Wow is nature,

    It has feelings like a human,

    Can be praised or hurt,

    Yet you’ll be glad when it’s pleased.

     

    Wow is anything,

    That can hold your gaze,

    That can show who you are,

    That can engulf you in feelings,

    That can astound you,

    That can amaze you,

    That can make you say,

    ‘this is unique’,

    That can leave you speechless,

    Wow is when you read this poem and can just say,

    “WOW”!!!

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
