Sunny days,
Burning fire,
Careful consideration of my attire.
Heart aflutter,
Face like stone,
Will you let me take you home?
Wishful thinking,
Teary eyes,
God my life is full of lies.



Short I know, but it is to the point I hope.

Ah I'm sorry but I haven't got much to say here, short and simplistic, yet nice descriptions and to the point indeed ;)

One thing :

Teary eye's,


I think it should be "eyes"

That's all ;)

Cheerios, Chandni
I should not keep on, I'll just creep on creepin'on.

I think I've fallen in love with this poem...no joke. I just love it. I'd put "of my attire" on its own line, and the same for "take you home".
Some of your phrases are a little stale, like "Heart aflutter
Face like stone".
Usually, I'd suggest trying to express yourself in some other way, but for some reason I think that it just works here. I love the flow, and the impact of the ending.I don't know...there's just a sort of purity or something about this. I can't explain it...which isn't vey helpful, I know, so I'm sorry.
For the sake of experimentation, I'd try taking this theme and using fresher sentiments...but I like this one just the way it is.
"Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I'll rise."

I liked it, thou it is short. my first poems were short too. I realized that even thou I was able to get the feeling across I needed more imagery. The same goes here. We feel the emotion, but the imagery isn't placed any where specific.

Not only that, it lets you explain a back story better. i get the feeling "You" are asking some one out and then lie or something. If you mad it a little longer and built upon that idea you'd have an even nicer poem. I still liked it just so you know. Let me know when and if you fix it up.
I will always fight back, no matter what.

I liked it a lot. It's nice, and short.

Not very helpful, I know, just wanted to make you feel good.
there are many problems in our times
but none of them are mine

Everytime I read it I find myself stumbling over the third line - I'm thinking maybe splitting it up into two lines may solve this problem?

I love the final line, especially the rhyme of 'lies' with 'eyes', which creates a good climax for the poem.
I wrote the above just for you.

Can I just say bravo? I think your rhyme is great and your meter and flow are fluid and tight, it is a piece of work that deserves pride. It has an almost limerick feel to it, but it's short and to the point. Unfortunately that means that it doesn't leave much room for analysis or too much deeper communication of any message other than what you've come out and already said. But, y'know? I'm okay with it. It's a very nice piece.
A poet must take the thorns so that others may enjoy the roses that have been made red through no act of nature.
