Chatterbox: Inkwell
I wrote this
I wrote this poem after someone very close died. I would like some feedback, plz!, also, keep in mind that this is a rough draft.
the sun warmed her cheek as she passed
the raindrops parted the way for her.
her laugh made the moon shine and the grass greener
she made the world go round.
angels sang when she walked,
the devil forgot his fiendish work
and Spring bloomed even in the frost of winter
The day came when she no longer laughed,
no longer shined brightly n the dark,
but lay, pale and motionless in in her soft covers white as snow
in the arms of death
no doubt at the gates of heaven
for that was where she belongs.
When she was buried,
sunflowers grew all over her grave stone
mourning her early departure
celebrating in a sad sort of way
her life that made the world go round
yet the rain still fell
and the sun still shone,
bright as ever the next day
though life seemed dark as ever with out her
and the grass still sprung up
as if she'd never gone
and maybe she hadn't
maybe her spirit strengthened the sun's gentle ray
and her laugh still harmonized with the birds
and in the summer, the ocean's spray her tears of happiness
the roar of the blue sea her calling,
her reasurrance
that she was still there
for the world still turns,
her spirit in a bluejay,
reminding them to stay strong.
it still needs work, but I hope you like it!
Lauren, it's beautiful just the way it is! You are a gifted poet.

That is so beautiful, Lauren. It may be a rough draft, but it doesn't need any work.
