The Half-Light I talk to the walls at night and to sleepy plants awakened by my fright If it were the day I would be wondered about at best or dismissed More likely the casual half-hearing assuming ears would add their own made-up story and finish my sentences To my feedback amusement I puzzle those eyes and wonder if I am just another poem to be remembered only by its first line © 012804 |

one spark from a match will make the silence of the darkness break and the melody of a lullaby starts from a single sigh notes dance from wax by design a symphony started from it’s first line |

I am just another poem to be remembered only by its first line ~*~ oops looks like I remembered the wrong lines. |

I used to talk to the plants well, until they started talking back... Your one heck of a writer Krawdad I really enjoyed this! Richy |

Krawdad In the night there are many things that listen. Loved the whimsy in this, and the touch of forlorn. |

I liked the use of half-hearing in your poem. I think that must be among the biggest problems in the world today. If people only really listened, oh my! |

(big hugggsssssss) People just don't listen is the problem, they only hear what hey want to hear and that is the source of so much deception and sorrow in the world! (sad sigh) I wish stillness of heart for you, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Krawdad, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |

A poem that expressed itself from deep inside of you. These are the best types to read in my opinion. I truly adored this one. |
