Subject: Sharing...just in the mood to...

Now, I'm not nearly at the level of Shawnte, but I do enjoy writing, which some of you know. Here are a few of my poems. I haven't written in a while. My life is a little too hectic and has officially overthrown my creativity these days. Oh, I should also mention that I like to make up words in my poems. I take creative license seriously :)! Here's me remembering those creative days of old...

Colorful & Counted

I am colorful and counted,
I am delectably contagious,

I can watch the forest grow,
While I burn the bridges to drink the sand.

I'm not a painter, a writer, a pawn, or a founder,
I don't lead because my principles are my own.

However, I am a friend and a wife,
Because I enjoy the journey.

ENLIGHTENED CRANE

�And I prayed for my night to cease
A wing, a shady cruel
I can�t take my path of pride
Or bypass its cunning jewel

Blazing black, the onyx sits
Upon it�s palatial prongs
It�s sure to flog the passersby
With whips of brightly wrongs

Grasping gulps
I reach a bit, it�s feathery belly shines
Cringing with each caress
Its quills become the time

I chuckle some, I cry aloud
I bark begrudgingly with shame
A weaker one would dance underground
But yet I know my name.

For it�s a shaky leg I stand upon, being this enlightened crane.

Really great imagery there carsown. Some great groupings of words, too.

Thanks for sharing!

Yeah - I especially like the first one, and I'm usually too impatient for poetry!
