"A tree stands all alone
In the deep dark woods
It has millions of leaves
Each with different moods
Some leaves shake,
Some leaves shiver
Some leaves fall,
Some leaves quiver
But I am the only leaf
Of this lonely tree
With millions of dew drops,
All...
This is a sonnet about sirens, whose voice is said to have sunk sailors. I'm still deciding whether to make it a long poem or a short one. So this is a short version. It's about a sailor who sinks to his death after listening to the sirens song. Enjoy (:
Away, away, from afar, I hear
A mysteriously enchanting melody
As tears well up in these eyes of mine,
Astonished I was, for I never cried
Amidst my tears, I can see the ocean
Arising with the oncoming storm
Across, was the island of the singing sirens
And I then understood, it was their voice
Agonizingly beautiful; it made me sigh
Admire I did, yes, I did admire
Angelic they were, so pure, so sweet
All filled with deep, unexplainable emotions
Adrift, I felt, until I realized I was sinking
Asleep, I lie now, beneath the dark waters...
So... yeah, maybe you had already figured it out, but all the sentences begin with A ^^
Do you think this poem should be longer, or is this good enough?
