Watch Me
Watch Me
by Lorenzo A. Fernandez Jr.
Come watch me, all eyes,
my motion fluid and precise.
Arms wide open, waiting
to be subdued by the dust and wind,
on this vast clearing,
argue I with myself
that though there’s no floating bird
but flying machines in this sky
of blue and tears,
I stand unflagging with my spirit
whose abode is on the clear water
of silver stream reflecting
the world upside down.
my motion fluid and precise.
Arms wide open, waiting
to be subdued by the dust and wind,
on this vast clearing,
argue I with myself
that though there’s no floating bird
but flying machines in this sky
of blue and tears,
I stand unflagging with my spirit
whose abode is on the clear water
of silver stream reflecting
the world upside down.

February 5, 2016 - 10:37 Honesty, my friend. That's all. Doesn't help if we just write rubbish to make some one feel good. We are here for support and honesty as well. I struggle with poems. Don't know all that funny names. Trying my best when I have time to read up on them. I just know something must rhyme, so most of the time, I just say free verse. Hehehee. But for they sound good. :-?Velantra

February 5, 2016 - 12:11 Honest, I find more comfort in writing free verse, although there might be some accidental rhymes which look good also.pies11
