    Lonely lawn



    A lonely lawn by the roadside,
    with a lonely river that strolls pass it,
    with lovely flowers flaunting their radiant colours,
    with trees waving to the sky in glorious abandonment,
    and a eerie silence as that of a graveyard in a peaceful world.

    Once in a while, a stray singing bird
    comes to the tall trees in the lawn.
    Once in a while, an adventurous frog
    comes to enjoy the cool communicable breeze
    of the lonely river in the heart of the lonely lawn
    and Once in a while, a hungry wandering black goat
    comes with it stubborn little horned head
    to nib at the lawn’s ever green delicious grasses.
    Once in a while, a golden adventurous buzzing bee
    comes to help itself from the sweet scented flowers.
    Once in a while, at memorable moments in men’s world,
    the lawn experience an influx display of love when
    gallivanting lovers come strolling on it lovely paths
    taking in the fragrance of it lovely flowers.

    And so year in, year out
    the lonely lawn grew better and better
    with the blessings of the sun shine and rain
    and it lived on longer than any creature
    without it beauty diminishing.
    Though it stayed lonely all the while,
    it lived long after man.
    The lonely lawn.

    This was a great mix of emotion and vision. It allows the reader to be transported, like on a moving train of emotion. Good Job!

    Super content! Shaky flow here n there.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
