[size=16pt]Miserable Fola[/size]

Day chamelioned to night,
and as he walked past like a bullock,
the usual smells got up from their corners,
shook dust off their buttock,
and attacked his nostrils like fore-runners.



Physically miserable with saggy jean,
Blotchy skin and dust polished sneakers,
another day lost,no job found,
Pounding head and aching jaws
redhot eyes,Fola is a mess.



Dark cottage,no porridge,fowl stench,
Knees on ground as body slowly lowers
'I quit'
'I fold the day'
'I'm gone'
Morning announces his repose,
Neigbours gather for Fola's dispose.


Dark dept,shallow pit,6ft
Dirgy cries,more mourn,no feast,
Breath and scent undesirable
Miserable,Fola is miserable.

Miss Veralaw. Your theme is awesome.
Just that,

Every line of a poem starts with a block letter.
And, always remember to punctuate your poem just like you'd punctuate an essay.

You made some mistakes in the punctuation.

But overall, this is a good poem.
Make sure you read more and more poems.
Ciao cheesy

nice one dear....the aforementioned reviews are correct.... The 4th to the last line should be "dark depth" right?

Hopeless lover

I stare at the dark
Deep in thought
Day and night
Strapped in Pensive mood
I think of you
Hopelessly
A hopeless lover

Our stolen kiss
Fortunate my first
Lingers in my mouth
The taste of your bud
The taste of a miss
I am hopeless
A hopeless lover

The brush of our skin
Tingles my loins
Couture of your elegance
Coys my realms
Catch my breath
Pose with me
I am hopeless

I caress your design
I behold your gait
The watchman's whistle whirls
It's past midnight,that was all dreams
I remain hopeless
A hopeless lover

At Peak of dawn
I run to the pavement
To watch your steps
Hand in hand with your gent
I know I can't have you
But join my realm
And be my beloved
In my dreams
Hopeless me,I am a hopeless lover

Vera, this is great.
I wish he comes back soon cheesy

You can decide not to punctuate at all, although make sure you know how to punctuate. Some poets don't punctuate.

But I've never seen someone who mixed punctuated stanzas with un-punctuated ones.

No mess sis,
do the correction here

Veralaw:

Again sorry for the mix up. You are really good. I love this poem.


You used repetition in your poem. I don't believe you used it to full advantage. Repetition can be used to emphasize the idea that your love is hopeless, but using hopeless, a hopeless lover is overkill.

Helpless and hopeless makes us see more clearly what you are feeling. Then repeating it over and over emphasizes the emotion.

Just my opinion. smiley

HOPELESS LOVER

I stare into the dark
Day and night.
Deep in thought,
Strapped,
And in a pensive mood.
I think of you.
Trapped!
A hopeless lover.

Our stolen kiss,
My first,
Lingers on my lips.
The taste of your bud
The taste of a miss.
I am helpless.
A hopeless lover.

The brush of our skin,
Still tingles my loins.
Couture of your elegance,
Coys my realms,
Catch my breath.
Pose with me.
I am helpless.
A hopeless lover.

I caress your design.
I behold your gait.
The watchman's whistle whirls.
Past midnight.
It was all a dream.
I remain helpless,
A hopeless lover.

At Peak of dawn,
I run to the pavement,
To watch your steps,
Hand in hand with your gent.
I watch, helpless.
A hopeless lover.


I know I can't have you.
Join my realm
And be my beloved
In my dreams.
Helpless.
A hopeless lover.

Helpless me, destined to be,
A hopeless lover.
