My October

Tragedy repaired
reborn
Simmered in the sultry summer sun
Distance never dared
to be done
baked to perfection
all alone

My heat seems to seep
feel your way or creep
crawl on so I can see
blindly, my destiny

my destiny

Symptoms of a syndrome
love and hate at home
autumn's chill is catchy
winter's will be done

Worries you bring to life
barely begin to describe
all that is left to ride

On the melting ice of spring
puddles of the past
I don't want to bring

But it seems to be
my destiny




















Please tell me what you think

    I loved the carefree rhyme in this- loose and independent. The imagery is really nice. I enjoyed "On the melting ice of spring, puddles of the past" and the echo of "my destiny". A nice ponderable poem.

    I enjoyed the poem, although the rhyming threw me off a bit. Is there a certain rhyme scheme you're following? If there is, I can't see it. I like the alliteration in the first stanza

    i rather enjoyed your opening stanza, the alliteration, the line breaks and the strong ending line, "all alone"

    the rhymed section in the second stanza however i couldn't stomach as well, perhaps being a freeform writer i have a natrually unlovable critique of most rhyme pieces.

    however you brought it back and ended well.

    To be honest I have great diffculty commenting poems of this type. Being a country boy I have a penchant for simple expressive rhymes. However, I am impressed with your write and enjoyed the read. Happy trails neighbor

    I know the rhyme isn't perfect. It's not meant to be exact. So tell me what you think anyway.
