[hometext] => Just a poem about my favorite thing
[bodytext] => I wake up, Into pure darkness, swallowing The room Look to the left Cold moonlight Washing over my face Single spot, silver stained and cold Glancing at the beam, shivering as I Step out of bed, to the window, Staring at a balloon, High above my window A cold face staring down, Watching over me as I sleep Protecting me with strong arms of cold It rises higher Touching the top of a chimney Flying silently over a quiet neighborhood Brightening the streets Eerie glows of white bounce Off of parked cars Who look menacingly at stray animals Tall bushes, catching handfuls of the light Shorter ones pouting in shadows A lonely car flying down the road Turning onto the street as I continue To stare out of a window but It may as well be a Prison Holding me from the outside, Holding me from a cold- washed silent world Keeping me from running With the stray cats To prowl in shadows of trees As silent as the wind A soft pitter-patter of scuffling shoes Scraping sidewalk Running down the street Free like a bird Flying over pavement Soft shadows appear, Look up at the circle of white Its light fading Slowly sinking into a sea of gray A bigger circle, a basketball of yellow and orange and red Rises up Forcing me to turn back, a night gone But who knows what will happen The next night, A bright, cold moon, To watch antics Of a person gaining freedom in the darkness A happy person, dancing in the black and Waving To a smiling white face High above Blowing kisses to the loving onlooker A huge grin from ear to ear on its face As I run and run, gaining freedom from a moon [comments] => 1 [counter] => 239 [topic] => 43 [informant] => Sakura-sama [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
