Heavy Footsteps I'm fairly new to poetry and i'd really appreciate it if you guys could give any type of feedback, advice, comments, opinions, criticisms etc.


Our idle breath hung onto the air

Matching Water's glassy stare

As the birds songs' giddy notes

Danced beneath their throats

Beneath dancing rays a collected daze

He greeted the pond's lazy gaze




Our glued eyes slowly climbing

Gradual lingering through heartbeats timing

A brew of brown sporadic spots

Milky eyes still lit with thoughts

An emerald underside sparkles clearer

The lily pad peers a collective mirror




Our eyes imploring, wanting more

Stretching our legs towards the shore

The trees vigilant, a wary gaze

As we stumble through nature's maze

A warning ripple with something to say

Cautious eyes yearning for another day




Our steps too steep break the quiet

That's all it takes for nature's riot

And with one last deepening breath

The frog leaps into nature's depths

Now she holds her secrets down below

We're not sure if she'll let them go




Thanks for any input!
