The Risk
By up_at_five
I wonder thru these dark filled times
and hope to lighten up these rhymes
For darkness fills a part of me
But thru this fog a hand I see
reaching out thru bog and night
Grabbing on with all its might
Pulling me to god knows where
I hope I pray but dare I dream
To lay beside that cool sweet stream
A willow cast a shadow on
My life my love my future Dawn
Oh should I light my heart a-blaze
Or will I wonder through this maze
To find the hole and patch again
and reach a path to find me Whole
Oh love of mine I do so hope
To find a road that leads to you
To share a love thats oh so true
My life before I bid ado
all I have I give to you
For Times before I have no care
For I am all I have to share

This poem has a certain ring to it... I can't quite put my finger on it, but I really like it. Crista is right, you are a very good poet.

It's not hard to use. It's just not as fun, silly goose.
