Today

A Poem by Natalie

And today the world cries.

Today the world sings,

Are we the only ones who can hear

Anything?

No.

It’s not the noise, falling

Hard and fast

Are we the only ones who can hear

Pain suffering?

 

So today the world cries.

Today the world sings,

Today I know you’re walking

Far away…from leaving me

This is very good. And I don't think all of your poems sound alike. Everyone's poems sound somewhat similar though because each person has a specific writing style.

A few but powerful words just as it should be.
You ask if your poems sound alike. I don't think they sound alike, as each has touched me differently. You have your own unique and wonderful style. I like the gentle power of your words. Keep writing, you have something important to say that others want to hear. Thank you for sharing.

Nice-the never ending inquiry
into humankind's questionable
altruism in this world-asked
so well in this true to the world
piece of "Magnificent Poetry..."

I Love This Final Verse...

"So today the world cries.
Today the world sings,
Today I know you’re walking
Far away…from leaving me"

We may hear the sad cries more then when the world sings. Easy to recognize the pain and hurt in this world. I like the flow and the questions. Complete poem was strong. A skill writer can write a complete poem in so few words. A excellent poem.
