Hello..im new here..a few of my friends from a previous InsideTheWeb poetry board said this place is highly recommended. Although my style can completely be myriad, unorthodox and downright strange at times. I really do hope you can get past that and give me some honest feedback to help me improve. This one right here I wrote with the help of a special child Whom I have had the pleasure of working with in a After School Mentors program over here at our local elementary school..He's really coming around. I may have edited this and directed the channel of energy and imagination. But im giving him FULL credit. HE did the work. So I share this with you. To all my friends. Who know who you are. Please..respond here and i will respond back at an according date.thank you


souls fly by laeving cold winds
that cant touch air
flying by leaving moments to stare
wondering if days lost
are moments needed
would still be here only if youd heeded
proper uses lead to misuse
stanzas written unheard are abused
silent poets emerge from muddy waters
with clean souls
and it's always a story you've never heard
that you seem to know
mysteries seem mysterious when the problem is solved
and love...
well love was never around
breaking hearts and broken promise
leading to stairs leading to nowhere
round and round
while darker it grows...
cold...

Self Jupiter, I have missed you!     What a wonderful thing to do, working with this young man.  Very well done indeed.
I will enjoy reading your work again.

Um, something about the line "silent poets emerge from muddy waters" is quite intriguing...

I could reiterate all statements above, but I have to say that Sunshine was captivated by the same line that grabbed my attention ever so greatly.

I'm sorry I wasn't around when this was first posted, Jupiter! I love the way it reads, I'm impressed! I see you've been doing great things with great little people!

*Hugs*

So good to see you here!
