Snow falls in the midst of June
Changes the perspective of everything seen
One by one, the leaves begin to fall
And what is left are the ghosts of summer

It's like screams heard in the dead of night
The scared children hide from the fright
Nothing is disturbed when the spirits come out
They dance in the streets and wander about

Touching the souls of each and everyone
Telling them the season of revel has begun
Poverty, pain, and percerverance
All they need is some assurance

it's my mouth that pushes out this breath..."-FTE

Hey, if someone replies to this, i wanna say thank you in advance.  And i also have a question.  I was going through my poems and i noticed that alot- if not all- of them are of depressive moods, of sad tales, of loss..i was just wondering if that was a common theme in poetry...thank you

I liked this. You always use good descriptive words. I write about the stuff that usually goes on in my life, so my stuff is USUALLY depressing or sad, but i have a few that are "happy" when my day goes right. Are your days bad/sad?

poetry... is the written expression of extreme moods... all art is... why would you want to write about blah in-the-middle moods? i mean hey .. that could be cause for speculation... but i'm just saying ... depression/sad stuff is one of the greatest motivating forces in arts (especially poetry) since the beginin of time.... well depression and love... two of the unexplained emotions we must experience... but that'z just my 2 centz..  

 Regret for things you did maybe tempered by time, regret for things you Didn't do, however, is inconsolable...

I love this poem. It's great. Let me say that I think poetry can be anyway you want it to be. Sad, happy, whatever. It doesn't have to rhyme.  It's whatever you feel and want to  express in any way you see fit. Any way you see as beautiful and I think so far, you're doing a darn good job. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
