Why


Why

by Robert Neest



There are some people living among us,

Most of the time they’re rich with higher ranks

And looking down on everybody as

They think themselves superior to all.


When seeing that they have all they would need

And even more while others strive to live

Is giving them a pleasure they enjoy

And makes them feel accomplished their lives.


So many times they’re doing harm around,

To see folks suffer being their goal

And live the main desire they possess

To be the bigger, better, stronger ones.


The sweet and mighty moment’s passing fast,

Then feel an emptiness that grows inside

While letting them without the knowledge why

It is themselves the ones that suffer most.

Waiting

Waiting  by Robert Neest A tall and wooden window’s open wide  And lets the early summer sunshine slip  Inside the dimly lit and narrow room  And draw few feeble shadows on the walls.  Beside the window stands a girl and looks  Towards a very distant place, away  From where she stays with shoulders brought in front  While arms are tightly held around her waist.  She wears a lively coloured graceful dress  With stylish shoes that are her favourite pair  And light shines on her nicely done hair  To make her look so beautiful and young.  With trembling hands she reads again the message,  As she has done since she received the news,  When several tears are falling from her eyes  And then are slowly rolling down her face.

Isolation

Isolation  by Robert Neest Few heavy clouds are covering the sky  Above the lonely white house with brown door  Where at the window an old lady sits  And stares outside with gloomy sorry eyes.  Next to the house a couple stands and looks  Towards the door with their little child.  It is the lady’s son, his wife along  With their daughter that are visiting.  The family is staying in the street,  They cannot go inside the woman’s house  And she cannot go out to meet her son.  Pandemic rules are strict and they are harsh.  The little girl is waving towards her,  She’s happy when she sees her granny, that  Is hiding several tears with a big smile  And yearns to hold her in her arms once more.

Landscape

Landscape    by Robert Neest The different shapes of white and hasty clouds   Are letting see the blue and shiny sky  Just here and there and only for a bit  To show the sun is up and lights the day.  We see the rocky mountains spread around  With green and scattered spots all over them  That are from lonely trees among the stones  Like spears raised from the forest to the top.  Few groups of houses sit below apart  And let the wide and green fields fill the sight  With red and blue and yellow stains about  From warmly coloured flowers on the ground.  A noisy, cold and dark blue stream aside  Is making way through wet and rounded stones  With falling water making white foam there  And sending cool and moisten air throughout.
