[hometext] => Poem about an event in my childhood... very difficult to write... opinions plz!
[bodytext] => The raging storm quiets I lift my head strain to hear I bury my fear slowly descend the wooden steps lightly climbing down from the cracked door quiet sobbing emerges a sorrowful regret my child's frame tiptoes nervous but determined laying a hand upon the door under my touch it explodes a beast emerges pushing past me blindly I step in liquid encompasses my bare feet in terror I look down I step out of the blood avoiding the shards of glass navigating a morbid maze focusing eyes upward I am met by the wounded animal slumped like a child in fear she sobs silently I approach her tenderly like a mother to her child she looks up seeing past me her hand holds her forehead blood escapes the fingers the man returns towels in hand hands them to me for my sister and I to clean he extends a hand toward her my trembling mother takes it leaving her children alone standing amidst the wreckage the ruins of our childhood like diseased orphans no more everafter for the five year old who was to left to my care the all too jaded seven year old [comments] => 4 [counter] => 172 [topic] => 39 [informant] => christinalwk [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Grief )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
