Jerry Golden Poet Lyric

As Taylor Falls

I stayed in 
On a rising sun
I won’t make
The same mistake

I found a lovers garden
And a gardens lake
The same mistake
I won’t make

I won’t fall 
And not get back 
To my feet 

I wont stand
And not expect 
To fall again

I saw smiles 
In the devils wine
A burgundy tint 
Such a lovely shine

I relax below 
A melody
I journey on 
Through scars
You don’t see 

I wouldn’t think
Of failures at all 
But I saw peace 
At Taylor’s Fall

Gael Attal June 15, 2009 at 12:39 AM I enjoyed reading this one ^.^ It's got that interesting change in tone halfway through when an image is introduced "smiles in the devil's wine" which I very much enjoyed. I really love that image, hands down my favorite of this poem. Great job!
