The Fall

The meaning of this poem is behind the words. I truly believe that the beauty that comes within something new to my experience, will forever outshine my past expectations of beauty. Enjoy, my dear.

I watched the last bit of dry color bleed from the sky

As an unforgettable Reflection stood before my eye

I look again to see the fading colors and the beauty,

But all I saw was the bleak Reflection of the new me.

Though, a sunset is rather beautiful

And filled with Awe

I prefer the sunrise,

Rather than fall.

Lift your head high, and raise your self-worth twofold.....this shows you have potential. I can't seem to figure out why a couple of nouns are capitalized, but this is truly thought-provoking in its solemnity with a good musicality to boot. Very well done!

Thank you so very much! and just in case you were wondering, I capitalized some of the nouns simply for the effect of personification and bringing those things to life.

the "bland" articles take away from that effect, though......
(and you're so very welcome. Always a pleasure)

Maybe you can fall into sunrise. Nicely written words in logic and beautiful order. Your composition just make me happy.
