Fragments of fantasy, strewn wistfully across a plain of despair.
Shards of hope taken effortlessly by the winds of change.
Too often and too scarce are the glimmering droplets of dreams.
Spread too thin throughout the uncertainty of the universe Like shooting stars...

This one is definitely meant to be interpreted as you see fit. I think the real beauty of it is in it's versatility.
Hope you enjoy it.

Dear poet, thank you for your time in entering my contest. I wish you all the luck in moving onto the finals. All finalists will be added to the finalist list, and be notified on the contest page after judging. All entries will be judged fairly

Wow. Just... wow.
I hope you would like to see my interpretation on this? Since I am the judge...
This is what I see:
line one: a plane crashing on a rainbow colored ground. I absolutely love the words strewn and wistfully, brownie points for that. They were woven wonderfully in this poem.
line two: the wind is left angry, feeling betrayed, so it causes the crash, leaving shards of broken hope to rain upon the world.
line three: too many a time are dreams interrupted by reasons without understanding
line four: good dreams are left behind, lost in a world we'll never know
Whether i'm right or not I loved this poem!! ~ Kerri -

Well thank you for saying so, I'm always a big fan of feed back from others. I don't think I'll ever really stop writing, or at least I hope not
