Wow! Very nice, and a most different style for you. I think this most definitely shows what a most resourceful poet you are. Good job, please write more, if you can. That was lovely.

Why thank you. Here is another I just wrote. It's called "Immortal."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ © January 22, 2007 by The Deecho
In your eyes, I see myself As more than a reflection. In your arms, I am held With more than a deception.
Away from you, I'm on my own Because you are the world Inside a crowd but all alone Just an isolated girl
You are my eternal life My wings will never tire I'm laughing, and flying, and so alive Carried by wind and fed by fire
Graves wouldn't dare to open their doors To call me through their portal Never again will flight reach floor Love has made me immortal.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There you go, hope it's enjoyed!

Here we go, sister-o. Lol. And for anyone else who wants to read it. This one was inspired by the title of the last. I thought to myself, it would be cool to write a poem that was truly about what it means to be truly immortal. I couldn't call it the same thing as the last, though, so this one is called "Immortality." Lol. .........
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ © January 31, 2007 by The Deecho
Oh, to watch the years roll by Without ever feeling them pass. The world laughs, the world cries But nothing ever lasts
Decades pass and trees grow old and I don't age a day Winters turn hot and summers grow cold Things change and yet I stay
To watch the lives around me is like glimpsing many winds fleet in their passing, I barely see What has a beginning and an end
These eyes of mine are jaded from all that I have seen. From the time Earth was created Through history, future, and in between
Yet I am young, still and ever young and I will see much more Life keeps flowing like words from a tongue and history repeats, but not like before
To walk to all edges of the earth Because eternity is mine to wander To see every death and feel every birth To take years to contemplate and ponder
They call me the Eternal Witness For I have seen it all. I've mastered patience and finesse And where others forget, I can recall
I've lived through wars, and plagues, and storms And never shed a drop of blood Who am I, in this age, to take this form? To remain from the beginning like I was?
I've watched a little child turn gray I've seen a mountain grow I've learned the world's way I've come to always know
To learn from everyone else's mistakes To know all right from wrong To wonder how long forever will take And never crave to prolong
I am invincible, yet weary overall For life stretches on, not a cycle for me Forever is nothing, nothing at all But beyond that, not even I can see
To live to decipher every little sign To know such knowledge, all knowledge, is mine To understand the difference between sin and crime To have a concept of everything - - everything but time. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ok, here's a little bonus...... (It's just a little short saying that popped into my head the other day. It's called 'Fly'.).....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Who says you need wings? People fly every day You only need dreams And perseverance to follow them all the way. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ok, that does it for me today.

OK I have to say that I have never really followed these threads, because I do not have a big taste for poetry, but I really liked that one. Immorality is so intreaging......... I liked it ;D

Ok, I don't actually have another to post at this moment, so I'm going to write one off the top of my head and see what happens.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The wind speaks to me In whispers and wails Like the voices of ghosts Fresh yet somehow stale It blows an earthly peace and also a spirit decay Does it sweep from the heavens? Or rise from the graves? At times I am soothed Others, I am chilled Somtimes the wind flies smooth And others, it could kill. Calming is the breeze Unlike its cousin storm One drifts aloft to please The other rages airborne I hear voices in them both A bittersweet entangle The hisses of the ghosts the singing of the angels. ( © February 7, 2007 by The Deecho) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ok there. That actually turned out well. I think it actually might be my favorite I suppose I should name it. Ok, it's called "Voices of the Wind"
