I've made this thread so we can share a poem a day and others can enjoy them too!


If you ask me (Rebekah Steen)

If you ask me what my dreams are,
my mind draws a blank
I prefer to dream with my eyes wide open
It gives my eyes room to think.
If you ask me what I'm craving,
I'd say a hefty dose of soul food
you know salt, sun, sand, and fresh air
throw in a rainy day run too.
If you ask me where I'm going,
I'd say I haven't a single clue
I've never known, never will,
think the roads are crazy and prefer if I flew.
If you ask me what I do,
just be prepared to hear me laugh
a single noun or adjective
oh man, we're all worth so much more than that.
If you ask me what I regret,
It might make me cry
why take time to stir up those memories
you forgave or forgot and chose to let fly?
If you ask me what I love,
hopefully, you could see my heart smile
since only a few things occupy
that acreage that makes each breath worthwhile.

So maybe stop asking questions for a bit
and just sit and be with me
then together we can dance with the thought
of how lovely being in a moment can be.
