Sidewalks snuggle toes
like half-wrapped blankets,
as future paves its paths
in silvery scents
and hunger finds comfort
inside vocal refrains...
as heart conquers
the hurdles
that block out the light.
Fists close around fortunes
of meaningful chords
that dare to dream
beyond fog, frost and flight
and soul sings in colours
as confidence grows
as bars full of notes
flow from rooftops
and rhyme.

This is a nice poem. The structure of the poem is good, and the flow of it is good.
I especially liked:
"Sidewalks snuggle toes
like half-wrapped blankets,
as future paves its paths
in silvery scents."
Well done!

This is a really nice poem. I love the personification of the sidewalk in the first line.
