Only Mine

Forgotten and missed, but still a home. fish disturb the surface of the creek, hazy wood-smoke all around, foggy, chilled, hushed and breathless. leaves rustling, lonely... hooting owls, trickling water, loose rocks falling. the snapping of branches, falling onto damp soil. the creaking doors of the shed chant a lullaby.

I dig. It can get depressing this world at times. Write on. The emotion is powerfully displayed in your poem. I liked it.

A nice picture painted, personal but inviting.. Stana two line one needs an edit, no big deal. I fancy the very last line should read..."My life." Just a thought..enjoyed.
