The Mist

An evening mist brings forth
Sadness within my bones.
The light scars the being I
am. Light nor darkness
bringeth me a dove.

The peace of a dove will
never quiet my home of pain.
I live in the heart of the mist.
I see nothing. I hear nothing I
speak nothing.

The Cloud upon the ground
visits me with the utmost of
ambush. I flee to no gain. I sit
deep inside of the mist.

It brings me much sorrow!

I am appreciate you taking the time to critique my poem. I believe you are right. I lost my thought at the end. I do like the way you ended it. I fitted in great. It made it complete and in tone all thru the poem. Thank you again. You have
made me that much better of a poet. Read you later.

It seems in this piece you are feeling rather trapped in the darkness. Eloquent and scans well throughout, however I tend to agree with Morgana. Perhaps still in need of a few slight tweaks here and there. Fine effort. If stars were allowed you'd get four, but then I'm hard to please. Thanx for sharing.

This is the first of your poems that I have read. I have seen your name around Neo, on others whom I read, in their comments. I became curious and came to read your work. I like this poem very much and can relate to it. I also agree with Morgana's ideas.

I thank you for taking the time to respond to my poem. Like I told Morgana she and you are right. If it weren't for poets like you both I would not learn. I appreciate you for taking the time to send me your opinion. Keep on keeping on. Read you later.

I have had a hard time getting in the newly remodeled Neopoet. I thank you for your comment. I think this one of my favorites. I haven't written to many poems, but I think I have gotten a few people to comment. It makes me a better poet each time some one like you comment on my poems. I appreciate your time and comment. I hope to be writing again as soon as I can get the glitchess out of my puter, in order to get on neopoet. I hope it will be soon. Read you later.
