No One Will Be There

Another poem I wrote way back in grade school.

When the light fades

And no one dares

In high tide wade

In twilight fares 

The wild cherry blooms

The shamrock roses grow

The shadows creep upon the walls

And I can't sleep, it follows 

I stand desolate

In this lonesome world

I look around and found

No one whispered a word.

Congrats on your winning poem. Well Done!

[Salvatore Buttaci]

A very good poem that gives this reader a real sense of what it means to be alone.

Though this was not written for the contest itself,
it fits in with the different color scheme which I like.
That, and sometimes we drip with lonesomeness.
Thank you for your gentle entry.

[Meredith Leigh]

ooh this one is my favourite. I like the picture it paints.
Very descriptive and pretty.
Great work!!
