One Thousand Cranes
: You Are My North Star by Gypsy Blue Rose
Free Verse Poem contest entry

 

You are my north star 

and in your arms I’m safely wrapped

when tempest turbulence

entangles tender hearts

as dubious winds meander 

close and far

 

You are my north star

the one who guides my steps

when I feel lost 

as I follow a comet 

to our warm dwelling lodge

I fall asleep in your loving arms

FREE VERSE is an open form of poetry, which in its modern form arose through the French vers libre form. It does not use consistent meter patterns, rhyme, or any musical pattern. It thus tends to follow the rhythm of natural speech.

Gypsy
"The poet waits quietly to paint the unsaid." Atticus
