I find that poetry takes me a while. It is hard to explain what you feel in just a few words. I need suggestions with the last stanza... I felt like I was repeating "world", but I couldn't think of another words to get across the same idea. For some reason, I couldn't get the pictures to transfer from my phone... I am not too good with that, so I typed it up.

Spring

Warmth on my skin
Soft whisper of wind in my hair
Eyes closed - feeling

That fresh smell of the air
A sweet smile on the lips
Eyes closed - happy

The rustle of grass
The buzzing of bees and lawn mowers
Eyes closed - listening

The laughter of friends
Sharing our world
Eyes closed - loving

The small buds on flowers
Our world filling with color
Eyes open - alive

I just started writing the first part and when I ended it with "Eyes closed - Feeling" I thought that it might be powerful to put at the end of each stanza. I thought I was clever :)

Here is a little bit that I wrote in my journal as sort of a diary entry. I like to write when I feel overwhelmed, and because I have only shared stories so far, I thought I should share another kind of writing that I do. I want to improve my flow, and make sure that my sentences make sence to others as well as myself.
