One mid-day in the bleak september,A day that would be one to remember,The world was ending in an allocation of horrid war---The sounds were surrounding, my heart was intensly pounding
Drear behind, sunshine ahead

Her stems curl up beneath her
Her face to the skies, filling her eyes
Warm and wet, they glow.

While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
Far beyond the evergreen treeDoes the raven fly.High above the mountains tallWhere his harbors lie.
Poetry I just cannot seem to quit.
Is their another form that I could do?
Dickinson's poetry is not worth shit,
And there is nothing that can beat haiku.
