Gazebo

Red dress twirls
Back against the cold grey stone wall
Shoes gliding across the placid marble floor
Like swans on a lake in the summer
Warm hands around mine
My hair light as a feather
Being blown about
On the scent of a summer breeze
Flowing through the room
Twisting around the grand, royal columns
Like a ribbon on that small girl's hat
She watches me dancing
Hoping someday that she might grow up
And live a fairy tale like mine

wow. the imagery was stunningly beautiful. this poem was perfect but for one minor flaw i see...

Being blown about
On the scent of a summer breeze
Blowing through the room


blown? blowing? within three lines.
sorry, it jarred my ears and i'm delicately picky

i believe i'm saving this. i loved the ending... :D
Carpe Diem.

The imagery was beautiful. I love the way it flows: almost dreamily. Apart from the 'blown' and 'blowing' so close together, I can't offer any advice.

I loved it!

I'll basically agree with the above posters. It was a beautiful piece and an enjoyable read. :)

Thank you very much! I have changed the "blowing" to "flowing" now. I hope that sounds better. Thank you very much for the compliments though! :D

Never interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake... unless it's to remind him that he won't fail... he just won't kill you.

Agree with everyone else. One suggestion: use punctuation at the end of lines. The fact that you can write a simple, etheral poem without a single person finding some flaw with your "writing style" is a credit to you and your work. Congrats.
