It's cliche, it's simple... but it's lyrical and meaningul (at least it is to me).

You should be advised that my writing style is probably pretty archaic compared to what is normally posted... most of it is inspired by the Romantics.

"Your Nature"

In your Voice
Chimes the Wind
In your Eyes
Shine the Stars
From your Face
Reflects the Sun.

With what I see,
I’m overcome.
 
my friend, you are a badass poet!


...and i REALLY like your style (notice the similarities in our work, at least length-wise).


with short works like that, the meaning of each word is more powerful i think. there is less to process overall--so what you DO have written down (beautifully i might add) is scrutinized, and realized more easily.
 
Pierre, thanks so much man. To compare my poetry to yours is the ultimate flattery. Short and substantial... that's really the only way I can write. Why take up a page to get a single theme across? Thanks again.
 
i just get bored fast.

i think a cornerstone of a good poem is simplicity. say what needs to be said, in the MOST effective manor, and say NOTHING else.

this, IMO, is the line between poetry and 'regular' writing.
