Tree

Standing proud,
Standing tall,
Standing in a soft brown cushion-
Waving blissfully
To the passersby...
Reaching up to stroke the moon,
Emerald dishes thrown,
Emerald buds form...
Echoes and whispering,
Worshipping the surrounds-
Supportive hugs to the morning choir singers
Who sing of the morning,
Rest
And then take flight...
The gentle caress of the morning breeze.


So this is my newest poem "Tree" --- it's a bit more poem-ish if you know what I mean ! :) Haha, it's very... distant and secretive. Almost confusing, well, or not - so comment on it please !

Hedgehogs (Haiku)

The shuffling paws,
Defensive prickles of fear
Forcing me to flee.

Comment on my haiku - Hedgehogs ... I hope you like it, the second line is my favourite! =D

The Two-Faced Tattoo

The cryptic patterns,
Etwining the skin to the arts-
As if a person
Could be so attached
To inflict pain
Upon themselves...
For something which will be there forevermore...
But more in the soul than in the mind, it is contained.

Swirling colours;
The magic pen dances across
Soft peach flesh-
Piercing and injecting
The ink which will create
Unique and intricaticy combined,
Put your trust in the artist,
Embrace the tranquility of independance.

   ~   I entitled this 'Two-Faced Tattoos' because it is the mixed opinions and controversy surrounding tattoos - I suppose it's also part of my feelings because I am not sure about tattoos whereas they are an expression and also a bit... I don't know - different?

Poppy Field - A Memory To The Wars And History

The gentle red,
Echoes of spirit and rage
Dance upon the petals-
Allow yourself,
To be lost among
The souls of those;
Lost long ago
In the Poppy Field.

So that's Poppy Field - the war memorial poem. I hope you like it... comment on it please - I need critism to IMPROVE ! :) :) :) Thanks guys!

Little Pond (Haiku)

Another Haiku - This is called 'Little Pond'.

The shining water,
Little fish break the surface
As the green weed grows.

Please comment on it - before you do this is a HAIKU, it is meant to be short !!! :) Thanks

Personal Opinion

Surely there is no perfection
But hatred is like an infection -
Clogging up the blood,
Messing with the brain;
It’s driving me insane,
I wish people could:
    Befriend...
        Not pretend


Ok, so find all the rhymes and sort-of-rhymes in here...
Got them?
Yeah, lines 1 and 2 rhyme, so do 3 and 6, 4 and 5 rhyme - and obviously so do lines 7 and 8. Please comment on this - thanks.

Shadows (Haiku)

Haiku's, for those who don't know, consist of 17 syllables (well, most of the time anyway) - they are Japanese and are usually set out in the style of 5 syllables to the first line, 7 syllables in the middle line and 5 again in the last. This is not always the case - but it is how I have chosen to present mine. I hope you enjoy my haiku ~ Shadows:

Rejected by light,
Overrun by the blackness,
Fearing the daylight.
