- A B S T R A C T - Brooklyn, NY 16.years.old Written 12/29/03 Tall emeralds emerge in a field Prized by wise giants Every stalk’s value to us is sealed In a world that is defiant To teachings wealthy but dressed in rags Whose pockets are full of green gems Perceived to be mossy rocks kicked by forest stags Seen blindly for they are life’s stem So such lessons are rarely learned Diamonds deemed glass Wealth, scale of life for which we yearn Weighed to determine class Strawberry shrub, vibrant in red appeal Appetizing for this hour Turns like seasons to yellow, a new fruit revealed A lemon, large but sour |

Welcome to Passions - what a great poem you wrote to introduce yourself! As the un-Official greeter it is my sad duty to warn you of Balladeer and Toerag. They are both scalawags, and you should never believe a word they write that impugns my character. You can trust my advice in all things (as long as you don't tell ANYBODY where you got it). OK? |

i like the way you use colors to deepen the pictures you draw. turning mirrors upside down won't make dust fall off the ground, hiding wounds won't ease the pain, sleep won't make you whole again... |
