Remember Yourself

Look out your window right now

Go ahead, do it

Look out that window as if you were watching memories

Remember as you read this poorly written piece of art

Remember your friends

Your family

Times when you look our at the world and imagine it to be different

 

The rolling hills of grass whispering softly to the wind

The tree waving at you from afar

The setting sun closing its bright eye for the day

As the moon rises like the beautiful birth of a child

Remember your love

Your loyalty

And above all, remember yourself

Stay who you are inside

As the wind blowing across my hand, be yourself.

this is beautiful. a very pleasant read. i enjoyed how you described the different stages of life and the importance of them. your visual imagery is percise. not to little and not to much

Such an enduring piece - it sits there quietly, simply, and beckons me into the deeps. There's something grabbing at me in that second paragraph, not only the images of the friendly earth beckoning and smiling in it's cycles, but more, hints of one's own birth..... and then the best admonition one person can give another - be yourself. I could read this many times and still feel moved....should tape the last 3 lines to my mirror.....

Very nicely written. Great job man.

Honestly, this was beautiful.

beautiful piece here, you expressed an emotionally convincing depiction, the passionate focus
is depthfully charged, the imagery takes the reader to the moment of happening, and its all
around, a well written, sentimental design, presenting a vision the reader can identify with,
I enjoyed reading this poem, clear, encouraging, thanks for sharing.

wow, you made me remember something, too. you made me remember being on philadelphia, new york. it was an army base way up north, and i remembered the forest that surrounded most of the apartment complex, the way the sky looked when the sun rose and set. i like your way of writing, and how you demand that i remember what i was and that i stay me wherever i may go in life...or something like that. XD either way, well done i say! you got a fan out of me ^-^

Remember as you read this poorly written piece of art - isn't that up for the reader to decide?

I like the metaphor at the end, looking outside the window, remembering to be yourself who you are in the inside; of your house, of yourself.
