Sitting on the grass,
wet from the mornings dew,
watching the multitude of colors,
rise from the earths floor,
listening to the silence,
as thoughts slowly fade,
falling deeper and deeper,
into the trance of the rising sun,
enjoying every moment,
every passionate color,
as the sun contintues to rise,
awaiting the turning point,
to when it begins to fall,
so new colors may be seen,
while in this peaceful moment,
experiencing the beauty of it all.
Teens aged 13-18 are welcome at the Guthrie Memorial Library Writer's Club, where we practice the craft of writing and share what we've written. If you're a poet, a playwright, or an author, join us for a chance to present your work and hear honest feedback. We meet in the Teen library from 6:30 - 7:30 every other Thursday. Dates for the rest of the year are Nov 3, 17, Dec 1, 15, 29. Check the Guthrie Library site for information regarding cancellations.
Guthrie Memorial Teen Writer's Club
The Guthrie Memorial Library Round Table Writers, so named for the table in our meeting room, have been sharing ideas and stories since November, 2010. We have been visited by Hanover Poet Laureates past and present, and we welcome any opportunity to learn more about the art of writing.
I like the use of earth's floor in the fourth line. I also enjoy the use of passionate and the way you ended it with a rhyming word. It gave me a very good image of what "you" were seeing.
ReplyDeleteThank you, I'm glad I was able to give you a good visual. What did it make you feel though?
ReplyDeleteI agree with Kellina, it definately gives a good visual, and it makes me feel.....peaceful (hence the title of A Peaceful Moment) and relaxed, and as if there is not a care in the world.
