Right beside a river lies a tiny town inside which there is a tiny man This tiny man is kept alive by a ticking clock with twisted hands And he lives alone; along the river there is not a single soul to make him whole He also has a tiny garden of which he is a diligent warden yet no matter what he sows in his garden, nothing grows And what of the town? It's tiny, and empty too, no ghosts, no memories just a town that turns smiles upside down Yet he's very prone to wandering streets dragging a bag of bones looking for something sweet "Why?" he wonders, as he walks "I know there's nothing here no time, no hopes, no fears; There's nothing in these roads I stalk" ------ This one is a few weeks old, but I'm not sure if I posted it here. Is there a way for me to check? [This message has been edited by Fizzle (07-23-2009 05:49 PM).] |

So tiny and so lonely, ghostly cold atmosphere brought across very well. Yes you can check the poems you posted by clicking on the Icon at the top of your post "Find Poems". They are periodically updated. The latest ones may not be added yet. Love, Margherita |
