Sitting quietly at a table in a corner bar
With his pride tarnished and a heart broken,

But he is ready to release his words unspoken...

Lovely emotional expression, drawing me close to you, to stand by you.May the flower girl give some fragrance to patch up a little heart bun......... nice write up.
very beautifully described loved your style......flower girl keep writing always
Dear poet, this only the second poem that I have read from you, and wow, loved it. I give this a 10. I will be reading more.
You've painted such a credible scene here. I feel like I'm sitting close by soaking up the atmosphere. The juxtaposition of the broken wings and the flower symbolizing freedom are well placed. I hope you choose the flower.
It's an artful talent to write like this. Telling the story but allowing the reader paint the picture! Bravo
this is a realy good poem, i realy like it. :) oh and thankyou for your comment on my poem.
This depicts a moment in your life were you reflect on what you see as a poet...its actually brillant...look forward to reading more of your poems
vivid vivid... i can smell the smoke, hear the sound, feel the heart.... briliant you are in making us feeling every word ....
It seems there is a great disappointment involved. One can feel the weeping. We must get up and start again-or life is meaningless. Overcome lonely times with all the things God will provide. Ask for the answers. It is another good poem with discriptive value. Go on with your gifts and try to keep the writing warm & peaceful - for now! Wonderful work. Michele Kostelnik Parrillo
I feel the sadness of the poet as he picks up his pen, heartbroken, nothing to live for but the encompassing sorrow. Then I see the encouragement in the flower. Your heart will bloom again as seasons come and go. the encouragement of that simple beauty in the flower is compelling. This is what I am getting from this poem. Well written, Brava.
Very poignant. I can feel the sadness as the poet picks up his pen. I feel the flower girl and what I see is a beauty that I can have. The flower, hope for a new beginning. It will take awhile for this heartbreak to pass, but that flower at the end of the poem is encouraging, very nicely written and hopeful at the end. Brava.
I like when the flower girl appears and your world became focused on something beautiful!
Beautiful, if sad piece but gathered it was you long before I got the the kicker at the end. Hope your heart is healing....Peace and Regards. Craig.
Very sad but sweet as feelings from the heart are penned in this poem. A 10!
