Imagery

another 2009 poem. This poem was written about a picture I had from some friends of my past. It's an imagery poem, pick an image and write about it.

 

True friends left behind

Lost in the mess of things

Only to be found in my heart

True friends lost in the mess of things

 

Never even knew I had true friends

Never knew the good things I had

Never knew what I had to lose

What have I done with my life

 

That night laughter drifted in the air

Like the light emitted from the fire

Gently growing as the flames

Lick upon and engulf the history

 

Assaulting the enemies encampment

Through the night in search of their flag

Weiner water soup to quench our thirst

Fruit to fill our hunger

This is more like it. I know I was somewhat doubtful about a few of your other pieces, but this piece is very evocative and, as you mentioned in the description, the image is very clear, and you've done a very good job of getting your message across. Well done.

Thank you. :)

The poems you have read thus far are really old pieces, might want to check out done if my newer ones. I'd like to hope i've improved.
