Imagination Run Wild
Stephen A. Cooper
June 13, 2001

Blotted Ink arranged on Paper,
Wonderful thoughts turn to vapour.
Ink running down like faded tears,
Showing your life is full of fears.

Blood and sweat poured into a poem,
Suns of water with Moons of foam.
Imagination sprawled all out,
As Rabbits weep and Rainbows pout.

Leprechauns guard their pots of Stars,
As Lions and Bears drive their cars.
You hear my touch and feel my song,
But can you say you're never wrong?

Think and ponder on what I've said,
And your imagination will be fed.
The earth could fit inside my head,
If I said all that could be said.
Well I thought I wouldn't write any more, but what I lie what was... ha ha... I have to write, tonight I got way to inspired, and this is what I came up with.... hope you all enjoy... :) (Smile)

Really lovely piece of poetry, I always admire those who can rhyme and do not sound forced or simple. Nice imagery and really smooth flow.. what I really love about this is the touches of fantasy which seem almost childlike in wonder.

One thing I noticed however, was the one line of uneven length in the second stanza tripped the flow a little. It seemed unbalanced in comparison to the even and fast paced lines throughout the rest of the poem. Perhaps adding a word into that third line could help? Perhaps "Imagination is sprawled all out, / As Rabbits weep and Rainbows pout." Just a suggestion though, the poem still stands very strong as it is.

Enjoyable poem =)
