Embryonic Awakening

Last vestiges of sanityFall apartThe lantern of innocenceSpreads its luminescenceRevealingA blighted landscape In a state of rejuvenationFresh green saplingsBlanketed by fogPush upwards towards the sunIn a sea of warmth

Leonard...

in a state of rejuvenation... a wonderful line... great images of fresh sprouts awakening... I like the way you've placed the sentencing... the only thing I could possibly critique would be the use of caps at the beginning of each line... as I believe only some needed them... actually in my old guy's eye... "Last" and then... "The lantern" and then "Fresh" You might could even leave a space between these thoughts to allow your reader to "take it in" just suggestions... the flow of the poem is very good already... appreciate your posting this eloquent piece...

Awakening

Leonard, A very in-depth poem here. I truly felt this happening before my eyes! _____________________________ To write a touching poem, you must gently stir the soul, if it brings forth tears or smiles, then the story was beautifully told. ________Janice Pearce_________
