Morning Ritual

As the suns rays shine through the woodland trees
The pardalotes sing their song of sound
And look upon the honeyeaters bathing
In the dew of the morning arriving



The black currawong spreads its wings
Making its presence known wide
To the animals far below
Which prepare themselves for the day



The orange morning turns to clear
So showing its honesty and beauty
As the day grows deeper
And the night approaches with stealth

    "Still I bet Mrs. Tilly will lap it up, unlike my poem about the Japanese lady and her five husbands chasing a hat through the park."

    This work sort of falls into that twilight world between metered and free-verse. As such, I really cannot comment too closely. Were those birds you were talking about?

    This is a really beautiful poem, Meri. I really enjoyed reading it.

    Got just one eeny weeny correction though, second stanza, second line. Should be "presence" not "present"

    It's very pretty, and I simply can't choose a favourite stanza.

    Keep it up, Darl.

    "The orange morning turns to clear

    It's called "deleting poems you don't want to be there". Or I don't want to be there anyway. Leave me alone.

    So if I had posted it on your account how come it isn't on the site!? We all know how protective you are of your password (giving it to three people) so how and when could have I done this?

    Theif! (x)_(x)

    Ohhhh! So you stole the poem from another hard working member of the class! I didn't expect someone like you to stoop as low as that! I'm never going to applauded another one of you poems because who knows how many others have been stolen. If I just comment I can tell everyone else about your low behaviour and I get points for doing so too!

    This isn't as good as your trees poem where you write about how you make-out with people in your favourite bush called Heidi!

    Still I bet Mrs. Tilly will lap it up, unlike my poem about the Japanese lady and her five husbands chasing a hat through the park.
