There was a flower Who always loved the morning shower This flower wasn't jealous, didn't complain, didn't groan But, it was happy for what the sun gave and shown
By the forest she lies, by the trails This flower saw some males As this flower smiled by the males feet This flower just loved to greet
But, day by day the sun never got hot And this flower still did not complain, not even one thought But one petal dropped One petal fell to the ground and flopped
And the flower watched as it fully departed All the petals it fully guarded This flower always tried and tried And then... The flower died
There was a flower Who always loved the morning shower This flower wasn't jealous, didn't complain, didn't groan But, it was happy for what the sun gave and shown -----------------
What do you think? confused

I cant really say...I loved it
It was depressing, but happy at the same time. Just like...Half of me was saddend, and the other half wanted to jump for joy. It was great, I liked it lots!

Wow, you maneged to depress me in like 10 seconds. Don't worry thats not an insult. I really, really liked it. It made me think about stuff thats pretty good, usually I don't care enough to post about about how good or bad someones work was. but that poem was...Inspiring (if a bit depressing).

Disclaimer: I'm new here, so if my constructive criticism regarding a writer's overall style isn't at all accurate, please excuse me, as I don't know anyone very well.
*ahem*
have you tried writing poetry without rhyme? I feel like you have a real talent for shaping syntax... making the words flow in a completely poetic way, molding and directing them to ultimately form a complete picture, something solid and understandable that your readers can touch for themselves and see the finished form and decide it's purpose.
I also feel like the need to rhyme is holding you back. At least, in this example. Like I said, I'm still learning everyone's styles!

... Well, thanks.
But... I don't think I could do that, I mean, I write STORIES with description that is almost a fault, but...
I don't think I coul do that with poetry. I'm not positive how.
Thanks for posting.
... I might try that and see what everyone thinks - I have never been a too big a fan of it, though...
