    Poem Commentary

    listen to the wind blow-

    Fade

    rain falls against my skin
    i am free-still i cry
    not because i
    have tumbled against sorrow
    -because i
    know this moment must end

    like a cloud
    that kisses the earth
    i am here 
    i am now
    yet i am fleeting

                blossoms wilt

     meadows turn to gold
         
          iridescent rainbows fade to gray
     
             this is you
     this is me


    take me now
    before i disappear

    Only those who love with relentless passion can compose a poem of this essence, of this fearless expression: "take me now before i disappear"—your voice is full of soul, with the wholesome odor of wanting to be taken, as a cloud is by the wind: "..have tumbled against sorrow -because i know this moment must end"—poetic brilliant! Bravo!!!

    Very nicely done, So true, so true... we are all just passing through, and must dance, love, and laugh while we can...;)

    Your words fade perfectly - for someone worried about blending into the world of poetry, I see your written strength exposed in a light of expression that is bright and purely poetic. "not because i have tumbled against sorrow" .... take me before I disappear". 10 - an instant favorite
