(por Ceniza, por sin no busco el Padre)

through tinted glass
the sun shines a certain shade of green
that my desolate eyes has yet to see
since age has taken me
sometime ago (so long you know?)
remember the waterfront
shining a star as God gently lift it up
shining the sun so strong and vibrant
through the tinted wax of our eyes
that was apparently applied by the grace of God
to shine the sun a shade of green

Nice title.  For some reason I expected it to be a funny poem.  But I guess you cant judge a poem by its title huh?  Great job!

Very well done here. I really liked this poem. You are truly a wonderful poet. I loved the ending. The sun with a shade of green, wow I like the imagery of that one. I enjoyed this poem a lot. Keep posting!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

well i understood what you said obscurity, so it can't be that bad... i just don't remember the grammar!

I'm sorry about the misleading title, i just didn't know what to title it, and so i just titled it where I was.  what's also neat was that it follows a little pattern... the first letters of each line goes ttt ss r ss ttt, just that was something interesting to point out, i don't know why i did that.  Anyways thanks for your replies, i really appreciate it.  I hope we all can see a Green Sun.

Geez, you stop speaking spanish for 4 years and this will happen to you, I just never had anyone to talk to in spanish in so long!  I was going to ask someone, but then I thought well, people will get the idea...
