Impressions

A part of the writer travels with every reader.

My thoughts are shed
where others tread,
when I bare my soul
with sidewalk chalk.

 

Trampling shoes
bruise pastel hues
that outline my body
of concrete verse.

 

But as they stroll,
dust stains the sole�"
lifting passages
from graffiti sonnets.

 

Taken in strides,
these words hitch rides
and scatter to new climes�"
until worn down by time.

 

Author's Note

Inspired by the recent fad of writers posting poetry in forums.

Reviews

[Larissa G.]

I think it's brilliant. Very unique, very different, and it brings its point across easily and beautifully.
