Beautiful Sight by ~johnflaherty:iconjohnflaherty:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Romantic > Other Romance > Open


A green field, covered with flowers of different colors and kinds.
The Sun is shining brightly, on a blue, cloud-less sky.
Butterflies and birds, deers and bunnies.
The soft scent of the upcoming Spring.
There I am, sitting on a rock.
With a long face, and a cloudy mind.
The deer approaches me and licks my hand.
I pat its head and run my hand down its neck.
It looks at me and leaves.
I get back to my own thoughts.
All this is very nice, but...
Something is missing.
What can it be?
What?
What?
Suddenly...

A tidal wave of concrete covers the field!
Buildings of different types rise from the earth!
The animals replaced for people in a hurry!
Cars, trucks, buses!
The scent became gas fumes released by the cars' assholes!
A grey sky covers this rising city...
I'm now sitting on a couch.
A 20" TV in front of me.
There's a werewolf sitting next to me,
And he's holding my hand...

...I get it...

What's the use of a beautiful paradise,
When you have no one to share that sight?
Regardless of the place,
With you on my side,
YOU are my beautiful sight...

Let's see, if I would have done this...
I wouldn't have made this a poem.
I would have made the basic idea less obvious.
I would have added some stuff.

Does this mean that this is bad?
No, it just means that you do things a different way than me.
