Lollipop Summer

by Taylor   Jul 24, 2007


The dark side of the moon has never looked brighter,
the trees never seemed taller, or their leaves more golden.
Can the rivers be remembered as anything clearer?
And if the sun shone any louder, would it be heard?
The great sky glitters with colorful cotton-candy clouds:
Orange, for the sweeter of childhood memories.
Yellow, for the lemonade in red, plastic cups.
Violet, for inspirations found after December,
And pink, for the valentine cards never remembered..
On a day such as this, an afternoon as lovely as Saturn's rings,
as ethereal as the flowered meadows of Heaven's square,
where does the traffic flow? To where do the inhabitants go?
Where have we all disappeared to...

    My kind of poem

    I love to write and read poems about nature,
    space and time and with questions it is even
    better making the readers think that much more.

    I really enjoyed reading this mind-expanding poem.
    An excellent read indeed with great rhyme and flow
    a job well done and Write On,
    Bogie

    This was a very unique write. I like how you mentioned different colours, and expressed how they relate to some object of nature.

    I noticed that sometimes you don't capitalise at the start of a sentence. I suggest doing so, as it makes your work look a lot more neater.

    A wonderful poem to read.
