New and Bright

The day is new and bright 
Come with me to frolic 
In the meadows with the 
Flittering butterflies
and the buzzing bees

The wild meadows 
Call to me through 
The wind as if they 
Are in need of my presence 
Come with me

The birds that sing
And fly every which 
Way are singing my 
Favorite song
Come with me

The weeds that 
Steal from the precious 
Flowers call to me 
They are in need of me 
Come with me 

I wish to see the 
Mountain range 
And the big blue sky 
In it's most natural state
Come with me 

I wish to bury 
This body of a long
Lost friend who refused to 
Come with me 
You'll come with me, won't you?

I just need to find 
The perfect space 
Where the worms can feast 
On her expired flesh 
Come with me 

She betrayed me to
The mother earth
She defiled this beauty with 
Her city ways 
Come with me 

Oh I see
You don't want to?
That's fine i guess...
CRACK!!!
Now you can come with me 

You'll be buried with 
My long ago friend 
Who defiled this place 
Just like you...
Come with me

I love the repetition and the imagery! You're improving quickly! You're excelling at a quick rate! Lol (even if it doesn't rhyme) I love this poem so much.
