Moments are on fire
And the ashes fall softly
On the Time’s grey cheek,
Seconds slouch forward,
And I
Enshrouded by clouds of doubt
Drink every drop of sand
That falls to herald the passage of another
Hesitant bleeding ounce of time,
Gusts of passion shake every vein of mine,
Strawberry-tasting memories of being with you,
Flash through my chaotic mind,
Leading me on the velvet path,
Which leads to an emerald valley
Where squirrels of love
Are on every branch
Tasting the hazelnuts of being with you…
Please tell me what you think

I remember another excellent AP poet who uses a metaphoric language while composing poems. Unfortunately he left AP and I can not direct you to his page (I’m still hopeful he will be back someday.. maybe)
I’m not the only one who enjoys metaphors. I know so many people who even host contests for that so I recommend you to enter contests. Not only you have a big chance of winning with your good poetry and others can enjoy them but also you can be critically judged and it’s really helpful.
I talked too much on this comment. Good poem it was and thank you for sharing

Some sad memories in these lines - liked the alliteration in the poem, think the s on drops could be left off - drink every drop of sand.

I'm not sure why, but this piece has bought tears to my eyes...could it be that my sub-conscious is reading between the lines. I sense sadness and loss...I could be way off track here, and please tell me if I am incorrect...
