~this may suck? i dunno i tried tho! thats all that matters rite? ~

Moist grass
After the first summer rain
Light underneath my feet
Green is all around
The air is warm
Humid
My hair falls and tangles
I run
The sun is setting
Moon will shine
Full…
Bright
It will light the beaten path
I have walked it ever so much
Among flowers…
Grass…
Vines…
You

Nice use of alternating line sizes... there were some lines that were only one word.  It's tough to do this but I must say I'm very impressed with how skillfully you layed this poem out.  The "..."s after some lines also was just used perfectly.
Wonderful work, Ethel.  You are definitely improving your technique.

I thought this was creative, the last word really made this poem for me.  Great job on it

Not bad Ethel
I like your other more than this, but still a good write
it's just that I'm amazed by your others and my standards for you are so much higher now  
thanks for sharing

This is neat.  I like the kind of driftiness to it...but it's also 1:30 AM, maybe i'm the drifty one!

I really liked the ending of the poem. You did quite well on it. I hope to see more from you....OK!!!!!!!! OK!!!!!!
