Rainbow's Curve < !signature-->Standing at the waters edge Rhythms washing over me Suspending thoughts, suspending time Beautiful gifts, that come from sea. Clouds approaching, swift and dark Roaring sounds, unleashing winds Awakening thoughts, rewinding time Searching shelter, from nature's sins. All but gone, peace abounds Clearing skies, sun's shining light Reenter life, renewed, unscathed Thrown rainbow's curve, in it, delight. ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (edited 11-03-2000).] |

well I can see you have been busy the past 5 days here. glad to see people getting brought in and adjusting well. here are just a few thoughts... in the third line, could you see about using suspending one time and finding another word the second? repetition can be overkill at times. it's a nice piece, though it seems a little too short. almost like instead of rewinding, we jumped to the last chapter of a novel. what you have here is good, but it still lacks that middle filling. it's like two slices of bread with no meat or p.b.&j. keep at this one and work a little more into it. describe how the wind moves. show us what the sins of nature are by taking us there. describe the sea as something more than just there. this will be an excellent piece with just a little more work on it. keep at it.

"well I can see you have been busy the past 5 days here. glad to see people getting brought in and adjusting well. here are just a few thoughts..." Busy? well I have been inspired greatly by others on here...*s "in the third line, could you see about using suspending one time and finding another word the second? repetition can be overkill at times." I do believe I used it twice for a reason here...but I could have used the word arrestingtime "it's a nice piece, though it seems a little too short. almost like instead of rewinding, we jumped to the last chapter of a novel." Actually I had a torrential downpour with the sun coming out and a rainbow forming so it was a brief storm..thus a brief poem...relating to the storm in my life at the time. "what you have here is good, but it still lacks that middle filling. it's like two slices of bread with no meat or p.b.&j. keep at this one and work a little more into it. describe how the wind moves. show us what the sins of nature are by taking us there. describe the sea as something more than just there. this will be an excellent piece with just a little more work on it. keep at it." I will think about it and work on making it more filling and eventually will repost or send to you. Thank you for taking the time to address me on this *smiling ~Wynter Bliss "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II |

Rainbows happen in the briefest of time and can go as quickly as they arrived and I for one found this one to be perfect in both content and in length. Leaves wonderful images yet allows for us to enjoy individually as we all are apt to see the beauty of a rainbow in our own little way. Loved it much. |
