half- crazy with the reality of it

half- crazy with the reality of it

A Poem by sweetbuddha

1. the sky

is unimaginable in

it's lucid vastness

as kaleidoscopic clouds

skip across that

cliché post- card blue

under which I am going

modernly insane


2. these trees

they speak to me.

whispers in my hair,

and teases me

with rambling

codes of rhymes

and riddles.

I speak to them,

my woes, my sorrows,

happiness,

anger,

and most of all those trees

have absorbed my pain.

I feel their hearts,

I taste the bark,

I count their leaves,

and I am half- crazy

from it all,

full of praise!


3. swirling, tumbling,

wildness in constancy,

and when

the sun shines on

this river,

it is a rapid,

solid, pure rush

of golden light.

this blinds me,

but I do not look away.

my mind is blind,

but my heart is not.


4. who am I?

what am I?


5. I simply am.

existing only within

change, yet

without changing

at

all. I am just within

my reason.

vapid as

a new thought.


6. I am.

I am relentless.

best poem i have seen till now
only i like some changes that u could make
in the 5th point I simply am. instead u could make

I'm simply me
existing only within
trying to be
just me and free

or as u like further... that just that 1st line dosnt sounds good
although it is a good poem to read there should be more rhyming words to give a good poetic effect
by the way it is a fabulous poem i like it ^_^

your welcome, keep it up :)
This is beautiful. Took me back to my childhood when I would climb every tree I saw.

Your imagery is great, too. I could see you in the tree in your craziness of thoughts.

Bravo! :)
