In The Field

Late in the night, there he was,
Existing by himself, just because.
He sat for dinner, neith clouds fallen low;
Watching for the day, waiting for the crow;
Night faded quickly, pleading for the deed,
Taking its home, showing its greed.
As light broke open the day
He heard the sound, then wished it away
But the time has come, the daunting hour here,
Great gusts of air, the blade draws near.
Standing alone, his bravery none could surpass;
Tis a mournful day-there falls another blade of grass

Hoppy,
Great poem! Creative aswell might I add. The elusive thing called normal is never fun to play with anyway.

Hey, this is awesome! I love the breach of normality, normal is the enemy of a poet. Keep up the great work! Be cool.

thanks for the replies! I try to stay as far away from normal as possible. It's never a good thing to go to be bored by your own writing! If that happens then you know you got problems *L*
