Lonely Poet Writing poetry by open window while children are asleep, I try to write down the reason when it rains I always weep. Scratching out on paper, emotion with a word, I hope you will understand and not find me absurd. For you have felt such pain before and can recognize the sign, of a poet having trouble finishing his next line. And if you read my poetry by open window when children sleep, you will think of me, the poet, and the lonely tears I weep. Yoin |

I enjoyed the simple phrasing and emotion in this, and, yes I know the feeling. Nice, Tracey. |

Thank you Tracey, Yeah I am pretty much a Free verse guy, so when i do write with the rhyme and meter it tends to be on the simple side. Yoin [This message has been edited by Yoinn (06-27-2009 12:22 PM).] |

This is just so tender, I love it. It shows that poets have busy lives too and try to listen to the muse ... while children sleep. And that's also the time during which they may surrender to emotions. Beautiful! Love, Margherita ps nice to see your smile! |

Do you really cry when it rains? You know I've heard said that when it rains, its really God crying because he is sad about something. Do you think thats true? ~Dreamer05~ |
