Description You're rich, like honey
Honey like a golden sunset
Spread across the sky
Where the bees fly
Where the buzz of life
Is not so tame
Where the birds float
And poets and words are one
Where the world beats with one heart
And acts with one purpose
Where we think with one mind
And we act in kind
Where smiles and handshakes
Are reflected in twinkling eyes
Where thought and action
Are married without compromise

OH I SOOOO love this! The wonderful images flow so smoothly from one to another and the rhythm of the words and lines just rolls along with no stumbly-bumps or rough edges to trip it up. I like the repetition of "where" and "one". I can see because of the use of "you're" at the start where it could be taken as to a person, I guess, but to me it comes across as intended--as an ode to a Utopian world image. It is idealistic, very lyrical, and totally lovely!

I really, really like this piece a lot!

(Just noticed a typo in line 3: there are 2 c's in the word "across" there. )

The poem isn't actually about a person, it just kina sounds like that from the first line. Nutopia was a sort of "conceptual country" made up by John Lennon which was supposed to live up to all the stuff he said in "Imagine" and i guess the poem is my idea of a Nutopia, somewhere where people (and politicians) feel something, say what they feel, and actually go on to do what they say.

That's beautiful. It flows like a song, and the images are delightful. A most enjoyable piece of work.
