All Within my Day .........( Lifetime In A Day)
I listen to my music and my mind just drifts away,
to sun drenched leas and swaying trees I’ve seen, within my day.
Of cuckoo spit on roadside bushes, glinting in the sun,
October mornings frosty start, as autumn time's begun.
The evenings drawing in and suppers eaten on a tray,
the sights and sounds of things I’ve seen, all within my day.
So many things I’ve yet to see and gaze upon with awe.
Gods nature blooming everywhere, His bounty all before.
I see within my minds eye, people loved from long ago,
I’ve missed and laughed and cried about and wish so I could show
them, how the world has moved along, and what I’d like to say
about the sights and sounds of things I’ve seen, all within my day
To contemplate on some events and moments in my past
Forgetting hurts and sorrows, yet they’re the pains that last.
Remembering the sadness of a wanted child unborn
who took with him a world of love, yet never saw a dawn.
A lifetime lived and loved and maybe sometimes thrown away,
the sights and sounds of things I’ve seen ,all within my day.

The greatest compliment I could ever receive would be that something I have written touches someones heart...thank you so much Nigel xx
Dear poet sister LODIGIANA!!.......the metering of this piece REALLY sets the tone by making it so easy to read...... it flows like the magic it is simultaneously conveying ~ "All Within My Day"...... the REAL magic of it lays in the truly 'soft touch' of the author in its phrasing.... where it takes the reader into a place of soft & subtly spellbinding creativity ~
~ "Of cuckoo spit on roadside bushes, glinting in the sun

Your ability to paint such uniquely 'your own' images, is truly a gift to be admired!!..... this is a stellar piece of poetry LO!!....... magic grows in your garden of creative phrasing and gifted craftsmanship!!......PINNED for perfection!!.......a truly kick ass write!!........ Bravo!! ?????.......LOVE & ROCKETS!!......T xo ?✴❤
Hi Tony..I am astounded by your really generous comments... to be honest I still never think of myself as a writer of poetry and when I receive such constructive , positive and encouraging words I am still really surprised. and stupidly happy!!!..I always try to write just what I am feeling and spend a lot of time trying to find the right words to convey those feelings..sometimes it works..other times maybe not but without the support of this wonderful Cosmo family my pen would be very much more static and my thoughts quietly retained
Thank you xxx.
Not to worry LO!!... if you feel that you're 'hitting and missing' with your writes it simply means that you're doing something right because the very nature of poetry is experimentation........ keep up the good work girlfriend...... you never know where writing may take you!!........ in my humble opinion poetry & painting are the only pure art forms left to humanity!!........I am your cyber-friend and admirer.......T xo ❤

Thank you so much Lyn for your very kind words...sometimes when writing, the memories, emotions and words come easily and hopefully conjoin to make some sort of sense! I hope that's what happened here. Thanks again
Lodigiana xx
watching the world before you as it continues unaffected by the pain you carry
music has a way of taking you away, i'm sorry you had to feel the pain of miscarriage
You have sensed so perfectly the essence of what I was trying to portray...yes watching the world , describes it so well ! Thank you so much for you very kind words ..A child lost remains with you forever and ever.. but life continues ..a little more muted ..but continuing for the loved ones you do have with you. Thank you for your kind comments ..much appreciated Sarah xxx
your welcome dear i always say true strength is picking ourselves back up when we fall....you are strong
