Recreating Beauty

by Nigel Oliver   Nov 8, 2007


I glanced at the light of this beautiful night.
Such a sight, not touched by blight.
Enraptured by glistening glimmer,
Then it all started to dimmer.

All of nights colors started to fade,
Sunrise will come, even if i prayed.
The light that i saw, left me in awe.
Lost forever now, but i could still draw.

I tried to recreate such beauty,
I felt as if it was my duty.

I as an artist try to recreate, it is my fate.
Maybe someday i'll be great.

    Your words truly painted a flawless piece of imagery. Each line flowed perfectly and the rhyme scheme was effective. Well done *5/5*

    I loved the imagery you portrayed in this piece, so beautifully done and creating such vivid pictures for the reader.

    I thought the flow was good for the most part, just in a couple places it was shaky, and I noticed that there were quite a few fillers (I, anf, the etc) which I think is what disrupted it.

    Try eliminating some of those and you'll find the flow goes so much smoother.

    Apart from that though, I thought this was very pretty and elegantly written.
