In the Ashes

There is silence in this grief There is friction in the heart There's a mountain filled with sorrows That tears the joys apart. On this woesome road of life Kissed by the fumes of pain When not a shed or an open cover To shelter from the rain. But beyond a moment of grind Is the gleaming light of hope But its hard to see the rainbow Beyond the roughest slope. Woesome seas of anguish Drifting through the wind Crashing on the seashores Of a life ablazed in rend.

I have a big problem. How can I make this comment as good as the last when all of your poems are so good and similar to my rhythmic style and pattern that I would attempt to use. We have so much to learn from each other. Rather than making a bunch of cute comments I would rather tell you how much I enjoy and appreciate each poem that you write. Now if I can only improve my poetry writing as your poetry writing as an example. I live in Bolivia, NC. Where are you from?
