Poem -
SONG BIRDS
I have tasted hell
It tastes bitter, like bitter
berries
It coats the lips, causing
spasms, preventing smiles
I have seen despair, the
desolation clear
In the old worlds reflected
In the new eyes infected
Always the eyes...
I have carried hopeless
It is real, solid
A colour poured like paint
through the veins
It stains ....everything, then
congeals into pain
Making funerals for the
songbirds within
Killing the birds till they no
longer sing
Yes, indeed.... I have lived...

Lol Tony, you shouldn't compare me to famous poets lol, I now can't get my head in the door!! 🤣😆 Seriously, out of all the styles of poetry, I personally, aspire to this style, simple written but hard hitting( hopefully)
I also find it one of the hardest styles to write and get right which makes it really special to me that you rated this one. For some reason, your emails are not always coming through to me so I hope you get this comment. Thankyou!! 💕
Smashing nature awareness poem Marion, hooked me in. Kind regards, your friend Max
Thankyou Max 😄🤗
XD, nah sure it's you! No one else could write an awesome poem like this Marion lol ;)
Actually now that I read it back it might also have to do with mental health? I'm not sure how to pin point it. Please enlighten me Marion! XD
Hi Max...no prob poems are often vague. It is about emotions, it is trying to explain the gigantic emotions of hopelessness and despair...thankyou love...hugs 💕
