CREATIVE WRITING

yes, this is magic, too, how i can write so many poems in such a short time. i'm scared myself. i should start thinking of copyright. :-)

Magic moments

Is it not miraculous
How monotone we all behave?
Take malls, just now to illustrate
The human’s wondrous nature.

We stare ahead and keep the pace
We want to reach a certain goal.
Sometimes, although, a window is
Most nicely filled with things we like.
We halt, we look and go our way,
T’is not a place to contemplate.

While walking through a mall myself
I witnessed a remembring scene.
Each other day there is not much
Distraction on my normal way.
The goal is “Buy to eat”; a most
Authentic scene and monotone.

This time, however, walking through
That mall was such a pleasure, joy
Illuminating all my face.
Three men there sat, musicians, but
In fact they were magicians,
Turning life into a fairytale.

So sweet a music, warm and clear
The singer’s voice, and joy!
Oh joy it was, they sang of Christmas
In a way that caught my heart
And left my soul to happiness;
I could not stop to smile.

People stood and listened, resting,
To enjoy a moment full of magic. Yes!
It was. Bewitched I could not help
To glow of love for scenes in life like this.

Really gorgeous! Is it autobiographical??
I like how you used the example of the mall to illustrate life and the "magical moments"!

thanks! yes it is autobiographical. i was so moved by this moment that i thought i had to write about it. :-)

Cool!

i like it too....very nice...this night i slept at my boyfriends and couldn't sleep at all...i wished i had some paper and a pencil..because i had so many thoughts...i like yours really..

i really like this one. it's is so realistic. who doesn't know these moments, when you are just heading somewhere, without noticing anything and then, suddenly, something very beautiful catches your eye or your ear and you realize how awful it is to be in a hurry. i really think this is a good one. congrats!
