Careless Poem by Laurie hill

Careless

Rating: 5.0


Careless call me, for I'd lost, the dream that kept my smile.
Beaten by the shattered hopes, that littered every mile.
Slower still the footsteps tread, from youths immortal pose.
Grasping still but holding just, the thorns that shield the rose.

This is lovely. It reminds me of a friend of mine who writes classic poetry. I'll email you with a link to his myspace page later. I think you will enjoy his work. Great job on this one.

You have the touch, many of your poems are about feelings. You so adeptly put your awareness of life to words. Thanks for sharing 'you' with us. Jimmer
