Alone Poem by Deb Fowler

Alone

Rating: 3.1


I stand tall, naked
limbs extended to the sun

proudly, I reach for the sky
fragmented clouds encircle

rooted, I sway to a breeze
a gentle dance with autumn

Thinly, I shiver
as below me they gather

the pool of leaves
that have forsaken me.

Deb, I like your poems and the way you describe your thoughts in them. Your poem 'Alone' is simple with a great message. Reminds me of my poem 'The Leaf' Keep them coming!

Nice fall image... That's what I see everytime I go out in my backyard (and shiver everytime I see the leaves)
