Rivers

So this is the part where the storm comes in This is the place where the tides collide And the rivers rise Where everything you've tried to hide Floods your mind Get ready to be washed away This tsunami of pain I miss the places we used to go But the waves have ceased The land's dried up And these rivers no longer flow

Julia Jaffe,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
