To My Feet
Subtle retreat
With a touch of painÂ
Night's edge we greet
As we count the slainÂ
Whispers from the pavilionÂ
Beyond plains and pavementÂ
Working like one in a billionÂ
But the frets for adjustment
Oh feet, wonders of innardsÂ
Reviewed headlines withinÂ
Showcase like Scotland YardÂ
The over looked still standingÂ
Water for the inside and out
Warm the bowl cool the glassÂ
Never mind victory's shout
My attendance made stoutÂ
With you I walk and run
More, the inside warns
At sunset my day is begunÂ
When the world yawns
Let me bathe you in oil
Whether coconut or oliveÂ
Massage till the blood boil
And the nerves forgive
Find me sleep at your mercyÂ
Let morning find you readyÂ
Beyond the grip of lazy
With you, stable and steadyÂ

I love the structure and rhyme of this one. Simply awesome poetry. Sometimes, the feelings that poems create mater more than the words and Im definitely one for that. I get a sense of pointlessness from this one. Sorry for a bit of self promotion, but maybe you might enjoy my poem "simple" it has a very similar structure to yours here. Though I much prefer the feelings I get out of yours amazing poetry. Thoroughly enjoyed Nathenail!

I tried to find your poem "simple"... Difficult for me to figure out how to find things... I would love to read your poem. Nj
Ahh, no problem Nathaniel! You can click or tap my name and it'll take you to my page. It's my newest poem, so it should be on the top of the list. I hope you enjoy it~ I feel as if we have similar writing stylesÂ
