Monkey Airplane Soldier
Be kind, please rewind.
Chance Encounter
A poem by Zoe Curzi

Fly away, to the peak
Of a world where they speak
Of sugar clouds resting
On marshmallow heaps

Journey far, to a land
With purple-blue sand
Where king mountains tower
And all things are grand

Find a way to a place
Where everything’s space
And everyone stares
At the queen in her grace

With daisies forever
And fairies so clever
With cool, sparkling dust
They achieve their endeavor

Find a heart, in a time
When hearts are divine
And those that are beating
Are forever entwined

Sleep on cool, lively grass
As warm night does pass
Where are my troubles?
Is what you will ask

Sing songs under cover
Of deep, soulful weather
And under the bridge
You will see a bright feather

Of all the times that might have been
And the battles you are yet to win
The beauty’s in a single choice
To hoist the sail and risk the wind.

That is one of the most beautiful poems I have ever read. It is lovely, brilliant, magical in every way. I can see this world, and I would give anything to be there.

Someday I'll say that this poem was written by a friend of mine, and people will be like "Really?"

Also, Claire love, a sincere compliment is not a thing to apologize for. mrgreen

Oh, God, Zoe...the imagery is amazing...this poem is truly enchanting and it just makes me feel inspired, and happy, and at peace inside.... I TOTALLY agree with Zeta. I'm gonna be that crazy woman on top of the top seller book stand waving your poem booking in the air screaming, "I KNOW THIS WOMAN!!! SHE'S ONE OF MY BEST FRIEND!!!"

I just want to let you know that that last..stanza, is it, is really inspiring and beautiful, and I'm going to copy it onto another piece of paper, *(credit it to you, of course)*, and stick it in my room, my books, my door, EVERYWHERE because, honestly, that last four lines makes me feel so inspired to grab your hand, and (emma, claire, zeta) and keep marching forward through this high school adventure.... *freezes looking dramatically into the distance*

Do you SEE what you do to me, Zoe? biggrin

Oh my goodness! Thank you guys, all of you....I love imagery. Lately, I've been writing a lot of poems about fantasy worlds and things. And you know what, we're all going to be so damn talented that we're just going to end up having days where we all stand in the street doing our talents, and in between performances/writing/whatever else we'll just point at everyone else and scream about how we know them and its amazing. xd

You should have submitted this to the literary magazine... if it was still going on. xD

It's awesome! The rhyming... the imagery... and the last part really is inspiring.

And I will so know famous people one day because all of you have the big chance of becoming famous. Totally.

No, I don't have a big chance at becoming famous.

Claire, you're an idiot. Of COURSE you do! You have so many talents! You don't have to be famous, but I definitely think you'll be successful, because talented people generally are at some point. If I could pick your top chances I'd say music and writing (prose or poetry, but especially poetry because yours is amazing). You could potentially be a good actress, but that'd be more likely if you took a class and liked it and got into it.
Claire, you should put together a book of all your poetry and send it in to get published. I'm sure you have enough.

Totally, Claire. Don't be a butt to yourself. We all say so. And our word goes. domokun
