Adrift
by Roger Crique (Age: 51)
copyright 07-18-2005


Age Rating: 10 to 127

  Adrift
Picture Credits:

Adrift in a sea of tears; I paddle my way across a mountain of anger.
The rivers I’ve shed block my way now;
as my pride stands zealously behind me.

Over and over; you multiply inside of me!
Once again I reminisce; traveling to no one’s land.
I leave behind my worries and fears.

I remember the snow falling;
how it reflected in your gaze.
But the chilly night prodded me to desist.

I remember the rain streaming down your face
and how I could not resist kissing your anxious lips.
Oh, how quickly the snow melted on your eyelashes….

I‘ve done my best to forget you!
Believe me; I’ve traveled hell and back.
But I keep going back to the same old park.

I sit on that old bench; searching the sky.
You thought you’d seen a satellite!
I bet it was a comet; the bearer of ill will.

It streaked across the solemn sky;
Marking the end of a journey.
And thus bringing with it the winter’s chill!

Don't think about her anymore, you can kiss my anxious lips lol. I have only seen snow two times in my life. Once when I was five and once when my child was 5. It was nice to share it with my son but to have a love affair in the snow, wouldn't that be fun, but really cold. I love it. Good job. My mind wonders down your memory lane. I'm insane. Thank you

Your Regina

Your use of metaphor in this poem is terrific...the use of rivers, mountains, falling snow, rain, comets, etc., all natural phenomena, supplies a continuity to the lines. The clever way you interweave the metaphorical natural elements with the reality of them is also very interesting and makes the poem cohesive in its purpose...this is definitely one of your better efforts.

The way this was written is so...sad andemotional.
I believe it's one of your best.
Keep up the good work.

The anguish of a love lost. It can hurt beyond pain.
This really brings it home. Unfortunately I have felt it both ways.
Separation, going our own ways.
Or to me the worst, death. The knowledge that no matter where on this world you go, you will never meet again.
Well written, Brian.

I know this feeling as most poets. We write about loss everyday, but sometimes something special is said. Thanks, Anthony

But after the cold desolation of winter, arises the beauty of spring. Remember, even snow has it's beauty, glistening, unmarred in the sunlight, like billions of tiny crystals to help you remember the wonder of what went by.

Amazing work, Roger. I adored the imagery... "I've travelled hell and back. But I keep going back to the same old park."

Marvelous
