ode to a moment

another actc assignment... not my favorite but i dont think it's bad.

 

 

 

It's a moonlit summer night at the edge of the sea,

fleeting with the push of the tide,

bringing beauty and leaving salt.

 

It's the petals on a daisy;

there for a while and beautiful,

then picked by the hands of a young girl and scattered.

 

It's love for another;

passionate & strong, proud and intense,

but forgotten over time.

 

It's dewdrops on a windowpane,

glittering in the sunlight,

disappearing into air.

 

It's an echo in a valley,

thundering across the land,

and fading on the wind.

 

It's life

It's beautiful

And it's short

Hmm...to not care this is pretty good. I like the last stanza: "its life, its beautiful, its short". That really brings the whole pice together. You're good at creating themes that are very personal to you yet everyone can relate to them. Nice work.
