words
like
sunlight
come dancing
through thoughtless branches
their echoes
shelter
my

I Rhyme Without Reason
I live in words…
words
like
sunlight
come dancing
through thoughtless branches
their echoes
shelter
my
soul
(’12. jan 17.)
i often find shelter for my soul in words…really well penned leo…
I often find it too, Brian. Glad you felt it really well penned
Thanks!
Words truly can bring forth much protection, nice!
Yes. It can protect, and be fierce about it too, Pat. Thank u
This is such a beautiful poem.
Thank you, Teresa.
And that’s a very good bit of writing.
Thank you, Buddah.
The combination of sunlight and words along with the echoes has a mysterious pull to it.
Thank you very much, Charles
Glad u liked it and felt a pull to it.
Leo, you amaze me as always with your words. remember what i said about trivial? I would never have been able to visualize this photo in the way you have done
loved it as ever 
your comparison of words with sunshine, the description of their echoes filling your soul… is very vivid and real somehow
PS:this is a Fibonacci right?
Yeah, its a fibo, and then reverse joined.
Thank you, Kirti. Glad you loved it.
oh i forgot to add- though this picture was in my story, I havent taken it. the photography is all Sushmita’s(my friend)
Okayz. Nice camerawork
I’ll change the caption then. Thank you, Kirti.
Thank you….well written. I enjoy always your words.

Amazing Leo
I too take shelter under my writings for peace…
I do it always. No better place for shelter, I feel.
Thank you, Chintan.

Sometimes…I can be cruel with my words. And those times their echoes haunt me.
But yes…mostly it is my safe haven.
Love poem yet again (aah fibo fibo!)
(P.S. great photo Kirtz…don’t forget to tell it to Sushmita)
I like to put my words out whenever I can.. At times, even I am cruel with them, Antara, but that’s part of a balance in life I feel. Mostly, it is my safe haven too. Love poem (this one?!)? I didn’t think it was, but OK
LOL i meant love *the* poem. Typo
Oh.. Thanks Antara
As the soul is inviolable, the pure witness, I am not sure of shelter as I try to express my real self in words, trying not to hide behind them except in allegory, but that’s for you to fathom. Remembering that like the sword the pen has two edges: One to protect, the other to harm. Beautifully put. Love David
Most of what I express comes from life’s experience itself, David, but I give my soul shelter in them because in the end, some words do relieve me of the harm other words try to do. I accept that the pen has two edges too.. one edge does protect me, and when needed, it’s quite fierce in that; and other to harm, though I do try never to harm others if I can help it. Thank you for finding my words to be beautiful
Nicely written
picture could have been chosen better !
something like silhouette
Er.. the poem was inspired by the picture actually
So this was the only picture I wanted to put 
Glad you felt it nicely written, Deepak. Thanks!
Oh what a beauty, as the wind echoes thru the branches what a lovely sound.
It is a lovely sound, for it sings a lullaby I feel. Soothing
Thanks, Chim.
Well said indeed, Leo. That’s the feel you often get when the words fall just right.
Yeah
Thank you, Joy.
And a perfect echo comes back. Wonderful write!
I hope so too, Tashtoo
It’d be nice to hear an echo from my soul.
‘Their echo shelter my soul’ lovely words and I liked your poetry so much. Sublime.
