Inari King For A Couple Of Days
 Age: 37 Gender: Female Posts: 2538 | November 7th, 2006 at 04:37pm Wow. It's been ages since I last posted. I think I actually lost my touch with poetry.
Anyway, my creative writing course in University inspired me to give it another shot. Whether that was a good or bad thing, I'll let you decide.
There were whispers of
autumn in your fingertips
the day that we met:
the crisp breeze of your
words, the brown hue of your smile,
the frost-glazed friendship.
You wound grounded leaves
around your lifeline and turned
them into snow drifts -
and they fell like tears
out of my eyes, into my dreams,
to decorate my sleep.
There was an offer
of re-birth in your palm as
you stretched it out for
clouds to decorate.
And the skies scrolled over it,
dyeing it orange.
You presented me with
gifts of a dying season
and bound it tightly
between the clutch of
your henna palm and mine - white
like the innocence
in your lightened smile.
You were always my haiku
in all its meanings:
complex to structure,
ambiguous in meaning,
beauty in snapshots. |

I adore the imagery. What lovely metaphors. *sighs happily*
Brilliant choice of words and marvellous phrasing. And it flows perfectly. ^.^
Um, can I keep it??  |

Oh my God.
I seriously can't thank you guys enough.
You've given back that last bit of faith.
I wish I could marry you all. Lol. But that would be illegal.

Who's the god of a god? It thought you were the poetry god. So, are you talkin' to yourself or what?  (j/k j/k)
It is legal somewhere I think...
Btw, I'm "stealing" your poem. I'm gonna print it and put it in my "book" with my favourite poems. I assume that that is ok?
(No, I’m not gonna sell that “book”. It’s just for me so that I can keep all awesome poems I find =P.) |

Ahaha. Nah, I'm no poetry God. There's got to be someone else out there that is even better than me at all of this.
Of course that's ok, sweetheart. |

 | November 9th, 2006 at 04:14pm Words cannot even begin to describe how beautiful I found that poem to be.
I LOVED it.
The day you honestly lose your touch at poetry will be a dark day for all poets here on GSB.
[lol, I am SUCH a kiss ass.]
No, really. It was wonderful.
But I'm going to shut up now. [i'minoneofthoseweirdmoods...XD] |
