Under Pressure

Vianne stood outside and stared at the flat tire on...

Shattered Window

The image of the shattered stained glass is still...

 Sifted Grain 




Sifting through forgotten dreams
To find my peace of mind 
'Tho abstracting foggy shores
Detracts what I should find

Waves of misted solitude
Have crashed without a break
Leaving my uncertainty
Uncovered in their wake

Heated swells have buried me
Inside a fevered shell
Now my verve can't sense beyond
Just knowing I'm not well

Sleeping through the worst of it
Deterred most of the pain
Until it showed my fated sands
How they were but a grain

Lovely piece of sensitiveness.

Carefully worked stanzas which flow very gracefully.

WOW!!!

Well, I just absolutley loved this one! Each line seemed carefully planned out and they worked perfectly. Usually in a Poem you have to stop for a second to reread something but in this one I just couldn't, it was as if i was tumbling down a poetic mountain and i couldn't hold on to anything. Great Poem, 'Anna!

As usual you have brought us a very vivid poem, utilizing the right words to being the images you wanted to convey. there is your honesty, the sense of colour in the words chosen, the inner beat,that slightly dark imagery, feelings, sensations. You are in my book a very talented poet and ought to be read far more widely.
