Last leaves of november |

They gather in prayer pose, through the unravelling of their trimmings, the place where the fallen ones follow paths of redemption to, a garland of gold clings though somewhat halfheartedly, as it ties to its birthplace, while its overworked hostess lapses soon into dormancy, i thought i'd forget by now, but pin fraying ribbons on the season's last embers, where you lay down beside me, your blue eyes still twinkling when the sky drops its parasol, if only to sleep with them and be reprived from this torment, of your abysmal recession, yet adherence, relentless as these leaves of november.

Inky Excellent poetry... I approach a new poem from two different angles, that is I read it twice. The first time I pay no attention at all to the content/story line...I read it outloud and see how its rhythm flows, feeling out the bumps and watching the punctuation closely...after all I am reading a piece of music and must try to be guided by how the composer wants the song to play... Then, and just as mportanat I study what the words say, what effect they have on my emotions, what inner feelings rise when the word pictures come into focus... It is poems like this that pass muster on both counts...it satisfies both needs, and I do mean needs....My desire to read poetry is not a want it is a need! In other words I enjoyed this poem very much.... ___________ice/ford ><> Come read to me some poem, |

beautiful. Remember in school the chant the girls used to do? Men with eyes of blue are never true. Men with eyes of green are never seen. Men with eyes of brown are never around. Men with eyes of grey never stay. What were we left with? "cast me gently into the morning, for the night has been unkind" |
