My thoughts over dinner

My thoughts over dinner

A Poem by Brandon

A gentle word, a spark of light. 
A glance, and each sound goes deeper.
There is no corner,
no dark place your love cannot fill. 
And if the world starts causing waves, 
its your devotion that makes them still.

thats beautiful man, graceful flow of words that follows the resonance of the thought. its like set to candlelight and genuine trust the feeling it imparts. I so dig.

short and sweet. don't think that just because your poems are short doesn't mean that they lack quality. i personally tend to get long winded. in my opinion it takes more discipline to be able to convey a thought it a concise matter. i enjoy this poem. the title caught my attention. some very deep thoughts floating around over ole din din. i tend to be a daydreamer my self. good job. i really like your imagery here

you did a great job fitting your idea into such a small poem. and despite its size, it isnt lacking at all. so romantic too! :-)

...I loved this. I absolutely love your style that is sweet, short, and to the point. Your poems are precise and powerful and I wish more people would do that. Two quick suggestions, that are very small...

First, change "A gentle word a spark of light."-----to----->"A gentle word, a spark of light" the comma simple allows the poem to flow better, it also mimic what happens in the next line which is nice ^^

Second, play around with the line "A glance, and each sound goes deeper."... it's a bit awkward, I think it's the sound going deeper part... it just doesn't quite fit.

But anyway, this was lovely. Keep up the good work!
