Awoke in the garden and sort of fell on the paper, must have been thinking about something when I dropped off.


A smile For Hope.

Wherefore art thou

Love of life

Hath hope deserted thee

Would'st thou have

But toil and strife

Or shackled not and free

Doth hope not lie

In darkness deep

Or err within a dream

What manner of man

Would chooseth not

A smile before a scream.

I love the fact that you fell asleep in the garden and then wrote this. It is True Poetry to me.

I love how you have put a shakesperian life of words into your poetry, it really brings out some emotion and imagery. View my poem 'A shakespeares life', it may relate to some of your writing.
