greetings to all --
i don't usually write in anything resembling rhymed forms (nearly
all of my poetry is strictly mundane), but i do have a few that have been
causing me trouble. i know the subject of this isn't honor, and i beg your
forgiveness for this lack of courtesy. but i'd really love to hear what
you all think of this (tell me how bad it really is!) :)
mist rises up around my feet
the frozen ground obscured
in morning's obdurate fog,
a voice none other heard--
a hand upon my shoulder
cold ice-smooth fingers knowing
somehow that i would be here
within the fog sweet-flowing
i felt your hand in mine,
your voice beside my ear
for all the crowd i stood among
none other seemed to hear
nor yet to sense your presence
within the break of day --
i set my feet for homeward
you knew i would not stay.
