In a land before time

Contributed by thehotshotpoet on Tuesday, 24th July 2012 @ 10:31:55 AM in AEST
Topic: InspirationalPoems

in a land before time
so very far away
long before the cave man
& what politics have to say

long before we were civilized
that is the word they said
long before christ
or the breaking of the bread

there was a place so peaceful
that anything you touch
would thank you with a smile
because it meant so very much

in that land you were greeted
on any given day
in a land where people listened
to what you had to say

no matter the occasion
or what a tragedy might inspire
the way folks joined together
I truly do admire

looking back in this daydream
I wonder how they did survive
although their love & understanding
is why we are alive

I guess what I wonder
most of all is how
did we go from love & kindness
to what we have right now
the hot shot poet

Of your poetry that I've read the one flaw that I almost always see is the use of Adjectives when they aren't needed. It tends to detract from the poem and makes the rhymes sound awkward or forced.

Aside from that it's pretty good.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
