Yes, this is something I whipped up in a couple of short few minutes, then revised later. I thought it was interesting enough so now I am exposing it. Could you please rate it and possibly attempt to interpret it? I always liked seeing how another viewed my work. Thank you ^_^

Silence's Code

When does the voice of wonder
First trace the mind's lips?
In the silence before dawn
Does it sleep soundly with you?
Or as the day leaves
Does the voice awaken and start weaving
All the dreams you dream while sleeping?
Ever present,
It never truly dissipates.
Only quiets as you wonder
Where it went.

Nice and descriptive. It doesn't rhyme that much, but most poems usually don't. Kinda hard to trace exactly what the poem is about, but it has a kind of underlying mystery to it. 3nodding So in short, I like it.

Thankee! It doesn't rhyme, but if you look closely, you'll see a certain syllable count so that it flows better than disjointed prose does.

The poem uses a lot of figurative language, I know. Eh heh, sorry ^_^;

3nodding It WAS a short and sweet poem. It flowed well and wasn't overly descriptive, which can get annoying, and the brief rhyming phrases were just right. Nice idea, too. Me likey. whee biggrin

I liked it , it had a certain mystery to it.
It was a perspective poem.
or it could deal with regular life it was a very good poem.
It was as you said short and very sweet.
In a good way: The flavor sour appple.
I have no idea why I just said that.
good day.

Yay for blank verse ((nonrhyming poetry with rythm))!!!

It has the feel of someone who just found out something really crappy happened, like, "Why is there pink lipstick on the pillow? I wear red" type of thing.

Thanks everyone! ^_^

I don't think it has a sad feeling, just a more of a "can't be answered question but we ask anyway" feel.
