The Bye an Bye

The Bye an Bye..

Breaking through the morning mist,
elicit dreamer dares to hope.
Lightning forks has boldly kissed,
layers of grass on steepest slope.

Surely I have witnessed fair,
Breath taking sights no others see.
As frankest breeze parts each hair,
minds kick back, as I dream free.

Walking on wonders storied in mime,
night releases me from dark as I.
Create for each of us a better time,
drawn, are those images of bye an bye.

Dear Roscoe

Sigh. I love my nighttime wanderings. Lately they have been too cold, go out in my condition. Thank you for taking me out of myself. Hugs.

Bravissimo. Beautiful imagery.

Got me a bit perplexed here

This is gorgeous work but not sure if your punctuation is creative or careless. I've read it as if it was intended just so.

My one real crit is the use of the word 'nature'. It's a bit like using the word 'beautiful' in a poem. There must be a better way.
Walking on wonders made by nature,
Walking on wonders
Walking on wonders of time water and wind,
get my drift?

Hi Roscoe

Having recently mastered copy and paste I'm gonna use it with some notations to make a few changes that you might consider....or not of course :

Breaking through the morning mist,
elicit dreamer dares to hope.
Lightning forks has boldly kissed,
layers of grass on steepest slope.

Surely I have witnessed there,.......now "fair" is OK but seemed a bit old fashioned
Breath taking sights no others see.
As frankest breeze parts each hair,
mind kicks back, as I dream free...... I figured you don't really mean you have 2 minds

Walking on wonders set in mime,......some reason this just seems better
night releases me from dark as I
create for each of us a better time,
painted images of bye an bye.......try it this way and see how you like it

OK hope this didn't;t hurt because I'd not spend this much time on a poem I didn't already like......stan
