Mercy – By Arab Writer Chick

A heart inside this chest still beats and dreams

Of harbors, salt on skin and ship horns blowing

In the distance. Alone in my reverie

I sit and I wonder: Will the sea have

Mercy on the fishermen today?

The Summer Sun Shone Round Me by Robert Louis Stevenson

The summer sun shone round me,
The folded valley lay
In a stream of sun and odour,
That sultry summer day.

The tall trees stood in the sunlight
As still as still could be,
But the deep grass sighed and rustled
And bowed and beckoned me.

The deep grass moved and whispered
And bowed and brushed my face.
It whispered in the sunshine:
“The winter comes apace.”

I found this lovely poem by Robert Louis Stevenson on an equally lovely blog “Cupcakes and Feathers”. Katrina posts inspiring pieces on various subjects including art, fashion, photography and much more. There is always something to enjoy! Give this talented blogger a visit, it will make your day!
