LittleChaoChao said:My ankles
Sleen soft skin
A soft gold
Guiding my steps

Through praries
Silk green grass grazing them
Bright colors
Dancing in the wind

Beautiful flowers
Blossoming around your feet
Kissing your skin
As you pass

The view is stunning
Just lush life or beautiful feilds
Greens with patches of bright colors
Exploding with vibrant life

The wind cools your body and soul
Giving you fresh life
Washing off all pains  
Freshness

The sun's hugs
Warming you gently
So perfect outside
Your ankles dance

The ground is soft
Life is beautiful
Perfect weather to dance
Ankles are beautiful



The first line is the topic I presume.(I think you should edit and separate it from the body of the poem if it is)
Soft and tender upbeat poetry this! Nice job!
Thank you littlechaochao!

IMAGO said:eyes grew on the wall
the bedroom mirror reflected no images
my electric heater turned into a snowman
just as the doormat wiped his feet full of toe-jam
the sweat from my blankets punched my sketchpad
whispering shadows left me for dead

Haha! Brilliant imagery. Short yet vivid.
Thank you very much!

LOST world
this is the story of an unknown girl
keeping her lost in an forgotten world
skys always gray and sun never shins
sometimes iv forgotten what is mine

Shinu sumori desu
Shinu sumori desu

tasukete!
tasukete!

this is a story that can never be told
hearing her scream and watch it unfold

never was lost time cant tell
of this forgotten world lost in hell...

Don't Let Life Pass You By
 
As I walk in silence along the sandy shores.  
I hold a prayer in my heart.  
My tears mix with the soft falling rain.  
I ask the Lord to open my eyes and heart.  
To show me His will and His way for me.  
As I lift my hanging head and my tears dry.  
I realize the rain has stopped.  
I feel the warmth of the sun deep in my soul.  
Hear the laughter of children splashing in the waves.  
As the water glides across the sand, it touches my feet as a kiss would touch my cheek.  
In a far away distance I see the beautiful tail of a whale diving to the deep.  
Children building sand castle's with smiles on their sweet faces.  
Young lovers drawing hearts with their names in them.  
As I pass a stranger I receive a warm smile and friendly "Hello".  
Don't let life pass you by.  
Look up, life is everywhere.  
So is the Lord,.  
He made it all to remind us.

::GREEN WOES ::

Delicately caressing my
senses so sharp,
yet green and supple!

Kissed it to laceration
and sucked in
my passionate juices!

Oh dear!  All my offer
from this virgin green solitaire,
still a buffer!

Same spree and glee,
you are in the
next door !

Grass Hopper …

::INTO SOMETHING::

In some gutsy
lusty lingers..

In some daze of
heart-burnt haze..

In some delicate digging
delirium..

In some manic
cosmic meditation..

Insomnia!

Bloodtest time!

Patience,
Silence watch and learn!
Diverse waters disperse,
As you churn at every drone.
Time falling it's way through,
An hour glass of bone.
Can't find a vein,
To steal the stains.
Patience young one, patience!

In japanese. I think)
That adds a natural touch to it(like reading a scroll). Strong emotions come across. Beautiful piece! Thank you!
