How about we

Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

How about we

How about we each write a poem....about anything that you love, that inspires you, or you could tell a story through your poem... Mine is pretty simple:

Bird,

Brown, Small,

Flutter, Chirp,

Fly,

sings a song

Dancing fast

Making noise

Having a blast

Tapping joys

Smiling wide

Lots of fun

That's me dancing

But I'm not the only one

Others love it too

YOU should try it!

Dew drops in the morning

Glitters on the grass,

Birds in trees are singing

Welcoming winter's pass,

Mist in the field is rising

Welcoming the day,

And the weeping willow dances

Spiraling all the way

Cold and wet,

in the air,

Raindrops hang,

a silver stair.

Streams of ocean,

melt the sky,

While I sit inside and watch it glide.

Down across my windowpane,

even when it's dark.

I look out to the street lamp,

out above the park.

Cool breezes drift in,

night air cold.

But I am wrapped in warmth,

and happiness to know,

that with each drop, a drought will end,

and with each tear the heavens send,

we all will flourish,

and we'll grow,

in this rain soaked world we own. 

Cold and wet,

in the air,

create a shining diamond veil,

upon my dark brown hair.

Heh heh... yah.  I've never been much of a poet.  Sorry if you dislike it.

It's raining right now, and I was thinking about how at night, I sit on my bed with the window open, and I watch and listed to the rain.

This poem is called "I don't know"

I don't know

What to write.

Perhaps I should write about....

a tiger?

a tree?

a bee?

a hawk?

a leaf?

Maybe I won't write a poem at all.

Wait, I just did!

Sunset
Brushed lightly,
Swished on like silk,
The clouds will change their gowns.
The time of romance, of magic, of mystery,
Oh, that time is now.

Mountain
I hear the whisper of an eagle's wings.
I taste the bitter cold.
The sent of pine drifts lightly on the breeze.
I feel the cold, like a dagger.
I see the shadow of a snowflake as it falls to the ground, slowly, slowly.
The hovering silence casts a spell
An eerie howl
Shatters the quiet.
The spell is broken.

 

I'm definitely not the best poet, but these are some of my poems.....
