is lashed by sheets of rain forgetting and remembering The sandstone school is burnt hot I rub the crumbling sand off the tawny wall remembering and forgetting The grassy slope home is zigzagged with paths I smell the air deep and dark And full of meaning crying and feeling Windows thick with snow white whirlwind flakes everywhere children drift by heading for school moaning and hurting My pillow is wet with tears my mind torn by laughing demons falling and fading Two rooms In the kitchen hot and shiny red faces glow words I can't hear no need to fear terror and kisses Teachers sharp can bring pain so fast A terrible friend A loving enemy I quake in horrible love fusion and cold Running wild down the dark street Holy reckless mad Wild strange force I am so alone wicked eyes and respect Deep breath as he leans over me and warns of terrible things compressed and hurt endangered small cries fade inside avoidance and wonder A sharp wind blows through the bushes I see ghosts and monsters in the clouds hot blushes and fears black nights trees twitching in the wind moon shining like a mirror among the stars Dogs howl in the distance Making me shiver regret and love My Mom I'll marry My Dad a worry A nagging pain I can't explain tombs and sunbeams Looking with round eyes at life I understand nothing I put it all aside 'till another day 'till I see it clear To a day that will not be and cannot be Though life is lived somehow anyway Waiting, still hopeful moving on, watching for those precious smiles between the tears [comments] => 1 [counter] => 161 [topic] => 43 [informant] => Steeleyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [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. ©
