Memories


 

 

Memories...

               flitting 

                          and

                 fading

like  smoke,

            twisting and writhing into the air...

Lying on the

             tip of your tongue,

yet hiding from the knowledge

that they bring...

Author notes

My first free verse, and I experimented with different fonts and styles.

Um...?

    Hmm....This is a very good start. I especially like your format and where you italicized some words. I think you should elaborate on it a bit more though...

    I'm impressed.

    I really didn't know what to expect when I saw your age. This is very well done. I like the way you formatted this with the words floating away from the flame like the smoke which would rise and drift away. I love the way you used the different fonts to show your emphasis where you wanted it. I think perhaps you should experiment more often. As to the message itself of the poem, I think you have chosen your words wonderfully to show the meaning you intended. I think the picture of the candle is a very nice touch. Great job overall.
