Reverie

Submitted by The Rain Sprite on Fri, 2012-11-02 14:21

Sleepy eyes gaze from a distance
Faces so vivid
In seconds, are forgotten
Clothes change each day
Colors bright and sometimes gray
Faces painted
Smudge in the heat
Umbrellas in the rain
Like flowers in spring
Kites fly in the sky
Children chase dragonflies
Leaves fall; trees die
Seeds remain
A new sprout lives
New houses later repainted
Fancy gate now low hedges
Scenery is fast moving
But the sky remains unchanged...

Last few words: 
Well I just copy-pasted this from my another account on Writer's. I never thought I could actually write a poem without putting too much negativity, pessimism, and darkness
Editing stage: 
Editing - polished draft

So that is where you have been hiding this! Glad you brought it here to share with us. Just the right touches in all the right places. ~ Geezer

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

Well thanks for the compliment =) I wonder why I don't share my poems like this too >.< Maybe because I want a poem with a darker mood that expresses much about my being but the other side of myself is someone who adores everything that is short-lived and fleeting :p

Thanks again ^_^

See?
In a blink of an eye,
It is gone."
