Maize Field

From a leafy window I gaze
Out to a long field of maize,
Which is baker adjacent
On this beautiful summer day
Where all one can do is procrastinate.
But this is not my minds intention
I am remembering those wonderful days,
When fond friends walked through the field
And talked of silly childish things,
But little can I do for the passing of time.
As I write this rhyme I am far away,
For I left my friends and family each and
A hole in my heart and soul transcends
For no longer familiar friends are we,
As we were when were so small and wee,
Uncertain words of long time no see
And innocent smiles of our terrible squalor,
For we have awkwardness to a tee.

Life seem to be a circle. We begin alone and in the end we are left alone to understand what we did good or bad in a life. Many times in a life we have many with us and one day we seem to be alone in the field of life. I like the feel in your words. I learn a long time ago to appreciate time with good friends and family. A outstanding poem.

:-) nostalgic. sorta highlights the unfortunacy of growing up and out of touch with the ones u love. easily identifiable. good job.

I like the sense of letting time get away from two friends and the way you seem like you are thinking. Great write, and hope to see more :)

A wonderful write on how time affects us, and reminiscences of past and its happiness. I like the contemplative mood of the poem, and it is a nice, laidback read. Very good poem!

What a wondrous reflection on the world around and inside your mind as well, looking out with eyes filled with a history of emotion and connections.

I sense shifting relationships~ you bring across the reality of how we change within the context of each other to each other through moving time~ your poem creates a mood in visual textures~well done~ =)~
