The Flight

Graceful death... revolves submerged
beneath the shadows of the turrets
flown; Death lingers... pulsating vengeance
and despair of wedded bliss ;Needing a
loneliness.. a solitude;  Flight's gravitation
returns to haunt as spectre; A darkness
coveted... closely guarded with malice;
And... as she wanders her life's quest
of yesteryear.... she ponders anew.....

    Thank you Richard, I have to be honest and say up front , I am not easy writing poems of this nature... I find I falter and have difficulty trying to instill darkness into the poem. Maybe I am destined never to write dark and angry poems

    I tried to write something like this and failed miserably. What you have is what i wanted to achieve. I love the cyclical nature i feel here, the rising and returning; and (to me)the amazing tone of re-birth. Well formed and presented so as to yield the greatest impact. Loved it . Blessings and best wishes, richard

    One has to want to read.... I had an insatible hunger for books as a child, I would read anything and everything... If I didnt know a word, I had a pocket dictionary I carried everywhere, many of the words, I use would be from memory rather than actual use, even if you only read a bikers magazine, it is still filled with words that you not ordinarily use.Newspapers even, just try to make a rule that if only once a week you pick up something that will give you a new word to add to your collection Looking forward to reading somemore of your work

    excellent

    ANOTHER wonderful write from your seemingly infinite library of excellent poems. The vocabulary you use is wonderful, if indeed you use it all from your own personal knowlege of the words it is very impressive, as i for one lack a good vocabulary due to my lack of reading..yeh, i guess i bring it upon myself, even so, a really great write, i loved it, very well done, keep writing, Dan
