Just thinking about how precious life is... You only realise how much so when you come close to losing it. A Happy Easter to you all!
Shadows at my feet...
I want to live and breathe to gulp clean air deep…deep into my lungs To have the energy to run and play Laughing with tickling, twirling leaves The lambent touch of sunlight tracing my form and teasing the dark shadows that chase after my feet
This poem Chanti touched me deeply--- and Thank you for all your sweet kind reviews on my writings of my heart- Sorry- it took me awhile to find this deightful Poem-Glad I didn't miss it- WArmly,Sheee
I only hope our children will be privileged to enjoy a world even half as lovely as the world we have known, for I fear it will be twice as terrible.All we need is love. Pierre
This is extraordinary, Chanti!! I cannot believe that I have not already reviewed this, as I was thinking of the very visual second half of this poem only yesterday, allowing its beauty and inspiration to settle into my own bones to fuel whatever it might within ME!! "The lambent touch of sunlight tracing my form and teasing the dark shadows that chase after my feet" - so playful and free and the idea of something I would like to toy with myself!! Those sensuous and laughing words have stayed with me. Just delightful, thank you. And as always, Chanti, you just take my breath away with your glowing appreciations of my work... I am just speechless with such feeling. I can really never thank you enough for so building my self-esteem. Bless you always. Love and prayers, Kate xx
Lovely, Chanti. Its only natural to want to affirm life as we see others infirm, and return to the sweet innocence of youth when touched by sadness and helplessness...

Chanti, there is magic in your pen as you trace your thoughts and memories upon the page. This is delightfully beautiful. Happy Easter to you and your family.
Take care,

Chanti once again you capture the uncapturable. The childlike innocence of the little things we forget to love and enjoy. This poem triggered a lot of memories of simple day to day things that we forget or refuse to enjoy as we get older. Thank you for the reminder.
Beautiful sentiment, expressed well in a short space. Life is precious indeed. Seeing friends whose lives have been cut short makes a poem like this strike home quite deeply. -- Jeff
Beautiful Poem Chanti, it reminds me of a game I used to play as a child jumping on and chasing shadows...been doing the later ever since lol.
Happy Easter chuck
Awwwww this is very touching Chanti. It is an reaffirmation of life, that makes us want to live it to the fullest. May the Lord Jesus bless you, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy tot he world, peace on earth, (((((HUGGGGSSSS))))), and a very Happy Easter, cause He is risen Barbie
