A room without books is like a body without a soul. ~Cicero<br /> My best friend is someone who gives me a book I have not yet read. ~President Abraham Lincoln<br /> The one who smiles when things go wrong has thought if someone to blame it on. ~Robert Bloch


the orb of dew
left from last night
'neath the cool sheet of dark
with faint starlight
sits on a leaf
where it twinkles and shines
in the beaming sunlight
as a diamond from the mines.
nearby, a tulip
fresh from the ground
is a bright splotch of red
in greenery all around.
it stands out
from the dark of the dirt
and grows tall and proud
leaves perked and alert.
this beauty of nature
as you can see
makes people smile
including me!

I was inspired by the dew as I made my way to the bus stop one morning, and so I composed this poem. It can be found on my blog: flippingthepages.blogsapot.com
