A shaft of light |
I really liked this poem. |
by AlyssaBrook
I really like this one. Very well written. Short, and to the point. Great work. I also agree with some of the others, punctuation does need work, but so does mine, so I'm not really one to speak. |

Wonderful message, but punctuation does need work. I love that it has so many messages...but try and make it a tad bit more clear so that ummm...the people whom are not deep thinkers can grasp some meaning to the poem. I love to think about poetry but some do not. I think you have great potential and i am glad to see you trying different styles of poetry. I can give you a 4/5 for now! |

Thanks for commenting guys! ok, Teria, you asked about multiple meanings, and you were right. this does contrast two people, in a way - it shows the perspective of someone who's laying in the dark, while someone else is living in the daytime out there. I didn't intend for it to exactly mean that in different parts of the world it is daytime, b/c the place where it is descibing is daytime outside. I was more contrasting inside to outside, stagnation to live, sadness to optomism and hard work. This poem can be taken many ways, I think, but that gives you an idea of what I was thinking when I wrote it. thanks for reading! :) |
