I stand in a waterfall of stars The fog rushes in to take what is ours The keeper of the night plays a haunting tune The moon glows an erie blue The planets slowly take their turn Off in the distance a candle burns Dreams float in a crystal sky Drifting to where children lie Magic flows through the ground Far away thunder sounds Shadows creep through the trees Nothing is what it seems |

i really enjoyed this... lots of imagery, succinct, vivid... real... the last line struck me "Nothing is what it seems" mostly because i've said the same thing before... i fluctuate between "nothing is what it seems" and "it's all what it seems"... use both those lines as sort of a theme running through some of my poetry... so anyway, i identified with this... good job on it and thanks for the mirror... |

Wow voiceless, I've only read three of your poems and I'm already impressed by you but, I was already impressed from the get-go and you've just furthered it....you're a very talented writer and you have a special gift...please stick with it...I mean your words are sad, beautiful, and powerful at the same time....once again you are a GREAT writer and you're easily my most favorite poet....I can honestly say I'm looking forward to reading more of someone's poetry.....take care!
