This piece was influenced by E.E. Cummings. It is an eccentric style, but it works comfortably when you neglect the parenthesis the first time you read it. Try and guess what the gift is It's obvious. -My Fair-Haired Gift- eyes of steel (cold too) inwards you reel towards my lips (tender skin) with jointing hips and…(just when you thought it was safe) a kiss transpires (meaningful) the red sky fires blasts gleam overhead (fireworks of love) uniting us in thread and…(just when you thought it was over) again it lives (never died though) romantic night gives moments creating memory (outlined well) an everlasting specialty -Knightfellow "If you had a choice to believe in yourself, or another person, who would it be?" |

Welcome to Passions! I liked this poem very much! I love E.E. Cummings. I thought this was great. Is the gift love? I don't know, i tried. Nice one here, hope to see more! I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |

Wow, never have I seen a style so daring as this... the words were so special.. I am thinking that the Gift is a girl because "hair" is contained in the title... WELCOME TO PASSIONS. Cant wait to read more. ~JDR "Is it love in my gut, or piss in my bladder?" -Allan Riverwood |

I love E. E. Cummings. He wrote with great style. I think you did a wonderful job of captureing this in your poem. I could never write anything this good. I really enjoyed it. Good work. ~Jason ps I actually learned something from your this thread. I had always thought that E. E. Cummings had changed his legal name to all lower case, like how he signed his poems (e. e. cummings.) So when I saw every one refering to him as E. E. Cummings I did some ivestigating and found that, that is absolutly false. His official name is still E. E. Cummings, so if any one else was lied to, now you know too...

Welcome to Passions! This is a wonderful poem. The style of the great E. E. Cummings isn't easily imitated, but you do it great justice. I can't wait to see more of your work.

Cool. This was different, I don't know much of Cummings's work, but I am sure you did him justice. The gift is probably a woman. xoxo Jenn< !signature--> "A person can never get over a broken heart if they aren't willing to let go of all of the pieces."-- ??
