Snow

Snow
Falling softly
Falling on my face
Falling like jellyfish in a light current
Covering the trees
Like Christmas lights
Snow
Falling swiftly
Falling on my hat
Falling like jellyfish in a fisher's net
Covering the ground
Like a white blanket
Snow
Falling angrily
Falling all around
Falling like jellyfish ready to attack
Covering my knees
Like a swamp's mud
Blizzard
Falling
Falling
Falling
Covering my body

Wow. Intersting. Comapring snow to mud. I like that imaginary. I also like how as you read on, the words got angrier, and you got more power out of everything. :smt023 I think you should keep it just like you have it. So, once again, awesome job, and keep writing.

Peacee

Thanks!

Do you think I should change Blizzard at the end to Snow or keep it the same?

I love the repetition and the similes! VERY GOOD! I love the free verse and the "swamp mud" I think is what you said. I love it! I wish I could write like this. I hope I see more poems like this! Keep writing!

Thanks so much!

I like the idea of the repetition but it seems almost too sudden. I would say maybe try and add something in between the changing moods. And the parallel to jellyfish is a bit odd, it doesnt really get the point across clearly. Is there another comparison you could use? I think this poem could be great it just needs some tweaks and maybe some rewording. But its your poem so ultimately what you do with it is your choice :D
Keep it up
