no wonder the title didn't sound familiar. reading some comments and responses, i see you changed the title! but you COULD have just added a little word, right? since i've commented before, i won't do more now. others are waiting to be read. bri :)
Love the way this one flows and the imagary is very good indeed. Annette
Much obliged Annette! I tend to write very serious, sometimes 'heavy' poems, and this one was a sort of an unconscious redressing of that. Had fun and... such pay-off when people also enjoy some of your stuff.
Just wrote my first poem from a child's perspective; its difficult to do and still make it imaginative and create adult-sized cred. Loved yours! I think when I was a child, I was Peter Featherhead! Check out my Sweet Cherries which will be published in Frosini's new Anthology for Children for Amazon's e-books. Marianne Larsen Reninger
Marianne, thanks for your kind words. I was checking your list of poems and, believe it or not, the 'Sweet Cherries' had already caught my eye. You stopped me short of clicking on that one when I got you message!
Featherhead Is an Improvement! I think you made other changes, and I like 'them', IF you did! ! To MyPoemList. Bri 😃
Thanks Bri. Yeah, good ol' Stu alerted me to my involuntary case of plagiarism so I changed it. Ever grateful to attentive readers!
I love this! I love the mystic feeling it gives me, and a feeling of excitement and hope. I am sure this poem would be loved by childre, indeed!
Thanks Victoria! Yes, a bit light and whimsical, perhaps to compensate for the hevier atmosphere in the rest of my poems! Warm regards to you... Rod
ok, i'll give you two days to correct Pumpkinghead! if you don't do it, i shall no lonker reed any of yor wourks! favorite lines: Sees the girl with golden hair Tuck her wings beneath the cape And smile at him from far away Across the coldness of the space. nice flow and even some rhyming! cute. bri :)
but, Wait! i think when i was five years old i had a blues band called Peter Featherhead; you MUST change the title! ! :)
Hah! Like I'll fall for this one! No chance, good try though!
