Poem
ALWAYS In the morning I get upJumping off the bed, A spring in my step. What a strange sensation At the core of my soul. I hope it stays with me All day. Slowly I remember my dream. You talk with me And I see you wonderful smile. You walk with me And I see your beautiful eyes. I hope it stays with me All day. In the night I lay down Resting on the bed, A smile on my face. What a strange sensation At the core of my soul. I hope it stays with me Always. |

Re: Poem
I liked the repetition on "All Day." Then with a dramatic contrast on "Always.", but thats about it. A common style in a more preliminary poem, you are too literal. Although the imagery was reasonable, you lack the euphemism of a more refined poem. Substitute some of the more blunt lines with ones that holds more allegorical phrasing.
(example: You talk with me And I see you wonderful smile. You walk with me And I see your beautiful eyes. ) Jono, that wasn't nice, but I do somewhat agree that a poem from a first person perspective can result horribly. Last edited by Zythus; 02-29-2008 at 03:29 PM.. |

Re: Poem
There's nothing wrong with love poems.
There's a lot wrong with dull, unimaginative love poems.

I'm very against thematic poetry revolving around love, maybe even more than Jono. Stereotypically, its a spin off of: -A painful past -Met this person -Obsession towards this person. ...thats how I justify it anyhow. If you really want to write about love, write an ode, something worthy to read that gives in sight and not a few lines that literally shouts "Oh god...I like this person and um...yeah....I like how she acts." I'm not targeting this thread to say such a thing, but ^ is my personal opinion. On another note, this forum needs more poem entries! Not that I dislike stories, I don't find them nearly as fascinating D: Poems Pl0x. Last edited by Zythus; 03-23-2008 at 09:01 PM.. |

Like almost all of them. Including this one.
