Fade Away ---------- Ring the bells that time forgot Teach the lessons your father taught Turn your soul inside-out Light the flame and kill the doubt An ancient wind, too cold to feel It takes my soul, and starts to heal It wraps me up, and chills my mind All sickness, sadness, left behind This meadow light, a peachy glow Engulfs my spirit, from head to toe My heart warms up, begins to love My home's not here, it's up above An ocean blue, deep as could be The steady peace embraces me I'm in a place, relaxing blue It reminds me of my love for you And in the end, the flame burns out The cold is mild, warmth done without No more worry within me I'm happy now, my soul is free.. |

I appreciate your comments, friends.. I have posted my work at other forums (I just started writing 2 days ago, and I wanted some critisizm).. and I can't seem to get any attention. It's great to hear what people think, and not be overlooked. Thank you both so much! |

Hello RottenApples... Welcome to Passion in Poetry.. Your work doesn't seem like that of a beginner. You have a good sense of meter and rhyme. We have several forums here, this being "Open" or the most active. This forums is one of "appreciating" others' posts. If you're looking for good critiques, then do take time to try our "Critical Analysis" forum. Our members there will be very happy to give you some valuable feedback. Check your email for a special greeting.. |

Rotten apples? I think not! No rotten tomatoes, either! Welcome to Passions! |
