Images Retreat
we see what we want to see,
carving out dreams
making meaning in threads
looped around days
as we tie ourselves together.
our tales find relief in reflection
our hearts, in retreat.

A beautifully written message, as always, Audrey! :)
I like the photo you used to go with the poem. I like to read the words as I look at the photo and see what meanings come to me. Beautiful as always Audrey.
Lovely poetry. Enjoyed.
I believe that reflection and retreat define so many things. Nice work, and a beautiful reminder.
Beautifully expressed, Audrey! Reflection and retreat are safe havens in this crazy-paced world. They keep us centered. Glad to hear you are submitting your fine work out there. All of the best!

Shyron--your words are lovely!
Absolutely true! Well said, Audrey!
Audrey, I always look forward to your wonderful and inimitable poetry.. And I agree with Billybuc...your unique talent needs to be read by everyone. :-)
Yes, I do believe we see what we want to see, and our dreams are born from that. Something I'm going through at this moment in time makes me relate to your words well. Nicely written as always, Audrey. You possess a magic to say a lot with a few words. Brilliant.

The stories that we weave! A delightful little poem.
Audrey,
The imagery you create is special
To each of your friends
And with life's ups and downs
Your poem blends
In as few words as possible
You have expressed a beginning and an end

Thank you FaithReaper! Hope you are doing well!
A very good poem
I find myself retreating to a more gentle time, then I look around and see the need to get involved. Retreating heart..Beautiful!
This is beautiful and so true. I think especially for older people as we do spend possibly too much time thinking about the past.
Great write, beautifully penned.
Wonderful poem with a lot of truth woven in.
We. See what we want to see. Oh, isn't that the truth on so many levels? Great poem.
Nicely penned Audrey.
oh yes Audrey very well written :)

Thank you Mike! Actually, I finally did publish my first piece in a literary journal recently--and am sending pieces out now for submissions to others--It is a whole other ball game out there
I liked the images this created. You can say so much with so few words. Bill is right, a good, strong publicist is needed. Have you taken the leap and published?

you are kind Bill! Thank you! I actually just posted it
I'm slow to get to this one and there are no comments??? Do people know what they are missing when they don't read your poetry? Talk about self-deprivation!!!!! We need to find you a publicist, Audrey. Your poetry should be read by everyone.
