Deep Thinkers – 2/13 meeting

This past Thursday, our friend Carolyn shared with us her presentation titled “ Deep Thinkers “ 

I really enjoyed this presentation, as Carolyn gave those in attendance the opportunity for them to share their own poetry, their favorite poetry of someone else, or maybe a meaningful saying that means something important in their life.  It was a poetry reading for all to participate in, to express and explore putting their feelings on paper. 

Carolyn began by sharing some of her poetry. 

The first one written by Carolyn was titled : 

“ The Sun Rays”

     I am basking in the sun with my eyes closed. I feel the warmth of it’s ray’s reaching my pale face, which are ever so lightly shimmering over my skin. Drenching it with a heavenly soft white light. Though it is slowly disappearing as the day come to an end. 

     The sun is seamingly being covered up by a few clouds that are sneakly moving in, only to imerge again from them momentarily in an aray of different shades of colors like yellows, oranges and reds, tell soon you will only see glimmers of the hews! 

Since it is slowly getting darker by the minute. The dark will soon decend upon us, for night time is turning a quiet deep blue, that would turn to black if it were not for the moon and the stars, shining brightly down on us during the stillness of the lonely night.

And the second one written by Carolyn; 

“ As Long as she Still Flys”

     Suspended from a tall brass pole there old glory is waving to all, who care to look up.  And she still flys. While rolling her bold, red and white stripes, old glory cracks loudly as she catches the wind. And still she flys. Though torn and tattered, the sun sets upon old glory, as the dark clouds move in. And still she flys. Standing with our hands over our hearts, we pledge alegence under God. She in turn promising to provide liberty and justice for all. As long as she still flys.
