Trepidation

Trepidation

A Poem by Emily B
"

another old one

"

Resolute

stood the mountain laurel

on the little hill.

Steadfast

held her leaves of green

to the noble sun--

and came along the little Bee

curious and bold.

His whispered words

of Trembling pulses

Yielded forth the prize.

This IS very Emily like, it reminds me of a movie, an english man went up a hill and came down a mountain, I was so impressed by that true story made for movie, Like I am by this beautiful poem. To stand resolute in ones convictions, is a beautiful thing, so stand resolute while the bee whispers, well that's nature calling :)

A poem full of fine words, mountain laurel is great, as is little Bee, an affectionate, intimate expression, I like noble sun too. Enjoyed this, fine write.

You manage to put so much into a few short lines. I like the importance you've given to various words - it breaks the rhythm when you are reading to yourself, and makes it that much more. To me, anyway :)

i wanted to be her when i was a little girl

i think we might be kindred spirits
This reminds me much of another poetess named Emily, who's writing I admire... (admission of which is the highest form of icaros13 style praise)

i read it often - just because i can
FIRST! i love the title, ok now to actually read the poem. I've never been a fan of capitalized words within the poem, like "Trembling" I just don't think that word is important enough to warrent so. I do like "trembling pulses" very nie tactle and auditory image

Your words these days capture something unique in almost every line. They follow your thoughts precisely and leave an indelible mark on those of us who read them.
