Flourishing green in its prime of life Spinning down a drain pipe Restricting it Inspecting every shrewd piece Its senses alert Fully focused Soaking in the suns flaccid rays Yet at its peak it spirals up even so Despite obvious dues To reconcile all important details And speak Spite all of the emeralds around Only technically really But it still bares down Pain strikes with repetitive chorus Of sweet singing voices that let up And you hear the bang Feel it Does it inspire the green grasses? No It kills And it's entirely the ivy's fault For being there And not protecting it Not alright yet But close Just good for now ~*I'm not gonna say I'm gorgeous, that for you to decide, if you really wanna know me, see the world through my eyes*~ [This message has been edited by Riley (11-08-2002 05:38 PM).] |

Foreverwithyou: I have been writing stories and things such as that for all my life. Writing has always interested me I guess. But as far as poetry goes, yea, this summer is when I started to write. Thanks for your reply! Riley ~*Pain strikes my heart, water drips down my face, I now stand in front of you, full of shame and disgrace*~ |

Hmmm... I like it, but I do think that a bit of punctuation would make the impact of it even better  To me it kinda flowed all together without any punctuation. :/ *grins* Keep at it hun, you can only get better the more you write!I'm so cute! |

Oooh... I love it. I would just change the one line, "it's the ivy's entire fault," to "it's entirely the ivy's fault," which would sound better. Punctuation.. blah, who needs it. Not you, Miss Riley.  Parasite |

No, you're not a prep. I liked the poem, and the title is a really good way to draw people in.  --Beth Howl at the stars, whisper when you're sleeping, I'll be there to hold you, I'll be there to stop the chills and all the weeping. |
