I dance to songs
Unheard by others
Sing to words
Forgotten long ago
Listen to stories
Told by faeries
Is there anybody else
Who does the same
Do you hear songs
Unheard by others
Or are you afraid
To look foolish
Because you move
To the unplayed beats
Listen to the voices in the wind
Thousands of years of wisdom
Ask the river
To tell you it’s course
Talk to the forest sprites
Help to insure they will live
Dance under the full moon
Basking in its light
Lay outside and watch sunrise
Soaking up the dew
Run barefoot through the forest
Memorizing every rock, tree, branch
And for once
Just live…

This is incredibly provocative. The introspect of the write makes me sit in my own self reflection. I think we'd all be better off if we could, even for a bit, sway to an unheard rythm or silently harmonize with a singer only we can hear. Maybe we could re-connect to the lost Nature we've forgotten even though it still surrounds us. Beautifuly done.

I really like this piece. I find that there is a serene beauty to it. I really love how there is such an innocence that's evoked in the imagery and everything flowed wonderfully. Great work! Keep it up and have a great day!

This had quite a nice flow to it. It had kind of a mystical quality to it and it appealed nicely to the senses. Your word choice was delicate but had a powerful meaning to the reader. Great Job!

This has a very dream-like feel to it. Although it reminded me of the Disney Pocahontas song.
