An Old House.

Ooooohhhh, this is really mysterious and suspenseful! (^.^) I love it! THe only problem I had with it was...

To run from what,May be her demise,From what lurk inside,And the blood thirsty cries.

Thanks Heaps. DOnt wory, being a nerd is cool, i find nerdy peoople cute

I like this poem! It's very scary and exciting at the same time. Reminds me of a Doctor Who episode, but that's my nerdiness coming on. I like how you gave it a almost blah beginning "It's just a house," type of feel then make a twist on it. Very creative.

Thanks Mathews,
im not so good at writing poems as i am stories, because i have no idea how to rhyme or anything. The poem is meant to give the impression of a monsterous beast house that when peole enter they never are seen again, kind of like a haunted house i guess. The grammer help is muchly appreciated. I really appreciate your review as ithelps me to become a better writer.

Sincerly,

Well, I'm not sure what this poem is supposed to mean, and still am not getting any clues after re-reading it, but...it may just be me, but I really don't get the message or meaning of this piece.

Bound to the street,
Where people passed by, Maybe change 'passed' to 'pass'.
And two ends did meet. You could take out the 'did'.
With the darting eyes,
And a quick pace, Take out the 'and'.
Shuffling steps,
And a pale face. Good description here.
She approached the stairs,
Her steps unsteady,
She reached her hand out,
Her feet getting ready.
To run from what, Unnecessary comma.
May be her demise,
From what lurk inside, 'Lurk' should be changed to 'lurks'.
And the blood thirsty cries. Taking out unnecessary 'ands' condenses poetry, and makes it more enjoyable, you could take this 'and' out.
Here comes the child,
With the long blonde hair,
The house creeping in,
With the claws of a bear.
Come ye children,
Come no more,
For it will arise,
Like never before.

Yes,
i purposely did not put them into stanza's. Thanks toto for your advice. Reviews like these are massively encouraged and loved.

Hey I like this poem... The mystery, the use of words and everything...

I just have a question, did you intentionally did not separate this poem into stanzas?
Well for me it was beautiful this way

One suggestion that I may add is to separate the piece into stanza's, I've found that by doing that it gives me more clarity on what I am trying to get across I also found just some minor grammatical errors. Here's an example of what could be done:

An old, old house,
bound to the street. Not each phrase needs to end in a comma poetry grammar is not any different that normal grammar.
Where people pass by,
And two ends meet.

With darting eyes, and a quick pace;
Shuffling steps, and a pale face.
