I Found a Red Barn

I found a red barn in the forest quiet and still the door ajar to darkness I walked through soft thicket through red rotted door frame And into the peace of total silence Though the birds chirped notes through my ears

I love to see the old barns across this country. We have many abandoned relics around our county...I also submitted a poem about a barn for Deborah Guzzi's contest..there is something sad and lonely about an old barn that captures me! Nice poem, Matt! ~ Carrie

Sounds like a wonderful escape from the noise of the everyday world. Excellent imagery in this one. You really take the reader away with you in this piece. Smiles from Lolita
