This a poem I wrote not to long ago. Ok not even an hour ago, but it was better that some others I've written, so tell me I you like it. I am trying to develop me poetry skill, so any help would be nice. Very Happy 



Like Fine Grains of Sand.



The touch of her hand, 

Is like fine grains of sand.

May I wish to hold it all the time.



The touch of her hair,

Is like fine grains of sand.

May it stay silky and smooth all her life.



The sound of her voice, 

Is like fine grains of sand.

May its wonderful tone never wither.



May every day with her be joyous,

For whom next I stand,

Is like fine grains of sand.

You kinda threw me off with the repetition of "Is like fine grains of sand", but it seemed pretty good besides that. I liked it! ^_^

Aww! That was sweet!

I liked it a lot. Especially the repetition of it. I liked the second stanza especially.

Happy writing!

It's good, I just don't get the references to sand...

Do you wish that you hold it all the time? Or are you hoping that you wish to hold it all the time? Because it sounds like that latter, and that doesn't really make sense.

Maybe I'll have time to go more in depth later, but my overall impression is that it's pretty good.

The repition sent me a little crazy to be honest. I think maybe you could tone it down a little so that you either cut some stanzas, or change the repetitive lines in some stanzas, 'cause I felt that it interupted the flow of it.

Also, I think the length of your stanzas is a little too short. This may just be personal preference - me being selfish for a minute Smile - but I don't knowfor sure. I felt that it made me rush through the poem, even when I was trying to take my time.

This is good to say it's one of your first poetry posts, so good on ya!
Ginge.

Wow. I really like this one. It's short, but very expressive. It shows how much you love someone...and you've done a good job!

Keep it up!
