The River

there is a river  off the coast  past the lighthouse  that guides lost souls  back home  (I’ve needed its light  many times)  The river,  It’s dark  and cold to the touch  it licks at my fingers  and threatens  to sweep me away  off my feet  and into nothingness  it sings of places  yet to be seen  and people  that I should really meet  it sings to the moonlight  and my beating heart  "let me take you away"  there are places  it says  where nobody cries  and laughter can be heard  for miles  over the ocean pla

SubmissionMy Tree  
It was the shade of the leaves  And the never ending melody  From some misleading forest  Not too far away  (But not from my tree)  My tree is different  Serenely decadent  And exquisitely flawed  (But that’s not the thing-  It never was)  Because it was only once  When the birds held their breath  
And the wind crept beyond the leaves  That she would lean forward and whisper  ‘It’s a secret’  (He’ll break my pinkie if I tell)  But… My tree is different

From The Inside OutThere was nothing inside it once  As it danced as one slipping to the floor  In some elaborate display of stylized human nature  Choreographed and perfected  The draw light and attention  To some elusive flaw  Constantly slipping beneath the surface  In a dance too quick  Too graceful for human feet   
And it seems a shame,  It would tell her  If it had eyes or ears or heart,  Because the choice was never given  The lesson never revealed  The dance never ending  And it seems a shame  Because if she could save it from dancing  It didn’t believe she would From The Inside Out

"Reach for me"Brittle but not broken  These stolen sentiments  Though ice and ash persist  And still, I feel nothing   
Seldom burnt and often smothered  The smoke remains  Nostalgic for the fire  Suffocating revelry in its wake  Robs your eyes of mist and moon  That pours down your cheek  And draws empathy from the harsh wind  The harsh wind that does nothing   
“Reach for me” the call of heroic victims  That falls on dead ears  When screamed by sharpened tongues  And bring nothing from the deaf   
Call for me, as I am not yet blind  And I would hear you &n "Reach for me"

Hey! Are you still around these parts, because I haven't heard anything from you since your last excellent deviation. Hopefully you return soon, because I'm missing out on some fantastic work here! :hug:

Hello. I was browsing DA and came across your poetry. You have a wonderful mastery of words, and I truly admire your works. Keep it up! Take care.

~xoxnightlingxox:iconxoxnightlingxox: Mar 29, 2004, 4:26:24 PM
hmm...some styles of poetry you could try: sestina's, what's known as the "running conscious thought" (a continous line of conscious thought that can have either coherence or non-coherence...), concrete poetry (write about a subject in the form of your subject....eg: if you write about a bird make the words into a picture of the bird), limericks, haikus, cinquains, ballads, couplets, acrostics, diamantes....

just experiment....it doesn't mean you have to like them, just try them out....experimenting I find always helps in refining an individualistic style of writing...hope that helps some :)

okai....well i've commented and I have to say when I first started reading your poetry from the very beginning, I wasn't very thrilled simply because the themes and ideas were something that is really prevalant throughout DA and has become (excuse the terms - I mean no offense) cliche and redundant.....I'm a first year student in University, getting my degree in Creative Writing so if I seemed to offend I don't mean to - I ALWAYS get very rough critisism for my stuff from the prof's.....and sometimes it is really, very rough but they always do it for my own good...but anyways...

After gradually going through your gallery and reading some more stuff rather than just leave I noticed that you strayed off into a style that's not so prevalent in DA, and which made me notice some improvements in your writing....and I like it very much :) like I said in my comments...perhaps some experimenting with formats and styles would open more doors for you and maybe encourage a unique style that not only works for you but makes your stuff really powerful, interesting and beautiful all at the same time...not to say it isn't already, but I've found experimentation has shown me some things I've never considered before...

anyways, sorry for this gargantuan note...

Once again thanks for the +fav...it's a compliment to xoystercrackerx and it's really appreciated...was happy that you liked it so much :)
