Description
walking down fifthave.
heart racing
mind bracing
onto objects
in the past
and i hear the music
and words
and thoughts
from a nearby poet
his head pointing to the sky
joining in on his rhythm
adjoined souls
spirits
voices
and the sun
beats down
and my feet
d a n c e a c r o s s t h e s i d e w a l k
and i'm smacking gum
and singing
rhyming stanzas
and the bass is thumping from a nearby car
no voices
are hushed
today
and the sun is singing
beating down
reflecting
life
across the sidewalk

sweet... i appreciate the use of layout to add to the poem...in a way 'making' you read it and hear it a certain way...
good job.

'tis interesting indeed. If only you could remember the guy's name. One problem though, the line "...rhyming stanzas". Seeing how this poem doesn't rhyme that line doesn't fit.

This is just an extraordinary poem! It makes me want to come alive, to jump, to dance, to celebrate!
I hope you will think about getting your poems together in a collection and then submiting them to publishers!!! You have knocked my socks off today!!!
