I will run to the hills with you
racing the winds,
We will seek refuge in the moons silhouette and beat the wolves to their caves
Finding a place big enough for you and small enough for me

Hi there
First some advice someone gave me long ago about short poems. They need to rhyme. None the less this one you penned is still good. It doesn't say much in volume however in between the line for those who can read it there is a lot this poem says. Good write. God bless
Greetings
Rus
PS: I would categorise it in Life poetry after getting its underlying meaning. |

Imo the only thing wrong with this poem is that it wasn't longer. It's like you started to paint the picture then denied us more. That being said, I really like it and rhyming with short poems. Ah. Forget convention. So long as it's good then do what you want. It's objective |

I don't agree with the idea that short poems need to rhyme. I think it's more important to capture the emotion and avoid anything that might get in the way of that.
You should check out Ezra Pound's 23 Don'ts.
I think they are essential to improve ones own poetry.

for this I have no advice
'finding a place big enough for you and small enough
for me'
just fits....
'beat the wolves to their caves'
a cavity alone for lovers
or believers or thinking
"I will run to the hills with you"
"racing the winds"
something we know all do
Well done my friend!
Hey Carthartic,
your short soliloquy
Is substantially perfect enough
for thee
good stuff!
Peace!

Beautifully written and powerful in its lack of sing-song.
Enjoyed reading will be back
