I have been working on this for ages and I've been so wanting to post this :D I really hope you like it and understand it and please comment anything!!


Somewhere on an endless plane,
You reached for me to dance,
And a thousand lifeless, envious eyes,
Watched as I took your hand.

Come dance with me your echo,
Of a brilliant nearby sun,
My swirling heart of ocean,
Pulled by subtle moonlit charm.

Guide my seasons of hesitation,
Waltz’s of winter and fall.
Under your hand night flowers bloom,
And life springs from the soil.

My life is in the dances we dance,
Your love in the mirrored sunshine,
So let the stars whisper
And the planets talk,
Because we’ll orbit
Till the end of time.

Hi there,

I really liked the emotion portrayed in this poem and I found it great from the beginning to the end. I particularly enjoyed reading the third stanza because of the amazing words and adjective's you used. Great language in this :D. I liked the general flow in this piece of poetry and I found it all very relevant. The theme of this poem is also new, creative and inventive. Don't even consider changing anything in this poem (it's absolutely awesome! :D) Nothing bad in this at all, keep up the great writing!!!

Yeah so I really like it.. :)
I think it has beautiful language and great metaphors. One thing is I can see why some might not get what it's about. Maybe you could use a few more extra verses to describe what you're talking about?
Love it though <3

It's pretty, but I'm sorry, I don't get it...Is it supposed to be like the earth and sky in harmony or something?

Somewhere on an endless plane,
You reached for me to dance,
And a thousand lifeless, envious eyes,
Watched as I took your hand.

Come dance with me your echo,(this doesn't quite make sense; ECHO?!)
Of a brilliant nearby sun,
My swirling dress of ocean,
Pulled by (Your?)subtle moonlit charm.

Watch my seasons of hesitation,
Waltz’s of winter, Fall.
Under your gaze night flowers bloom,
And life spouts from the soil.

My life is in the dances we dance,
Your love in the glowing moonshine,
Let the stars whisper
And the planets talk,
Because we’ll orbit
Till the end of time.

Good job! :)
