Once you were vibrant, now blanket your dead in anemia's green we yield to the wind and collapse at your shadow draining your field of its tricolored dream [This message has been edited by EmmaRose (12-03-2011 06:26 PM).] |

Ah, the last stanza reached out and grabbed me, EmmaRose. I could just see the field fading into a brown, lusterless color. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

This reminds me of a part in the movie "The dead poets society" when the teacher (Robin Williams) tells the students to look close at the pictures of dead athletes in the showcase...and then whispers "carpe diem" I dodn't know why, but this is where this well written piece took me? |
