This is an elegant piece of free verse, and I like the picture you matched it with. There's a fair bit of alliteration there, but it isn't very obvious on first reading; more repeated sounds (s in one verse, p in another) than an obvious ploy. The last line intrigued me.

This was simple but very nice. I enjoyed it and especially liked the ending. The meter was interesting and the imagery was very good.

Good writing,

Larry

Well, I think you managed to incorporate all five senses in that one, Pili! It was a pleasure to read and become enwrapped in your musings. Nicely done!

This poem shouts of deep personal sorrow that lingers in the heart and taints the soul with guilt. The emotions are released to the words and they spill their power to the page. The last line completes the thoughts expressed like the sun completes the sky both casting a blue hue. I enjoyed the skill and artistry displayed by the author through her charisma to lead the reader to a inner plateau of awareness.

This read like spirit twirling around the room. Its bittersweet message lightly touched by the elf's lingering light. Very nice,, and very beautiful. Zen

This poem had such a great rhythm to it that I had to go back and read it again. There is really a great deal of talent at this site. It doesn't seem that I am reading the works of amateurs at all.

Great poem as always my friend.

The sense of smell and memory

are tied into the human responce

system of fight or flight. Subconcious

memories of smells bring up many

more accute memories than a snapshot

In sedating sorrow
I want to forget,
arriving to serenity
deep as the ocean,
washing away
all needs and hopes.

As I touch my skin
I smell like you.

Your tender heart is evident in these words.
Beautiful writing here!
wow...
left me with a tear in my eyes and warmth in my heart.
good stuff!
love it!
