on poetry ~ "Before"

I was just thinking one day, and this came to me. Let me know what you think! 

Before

When the grass was green, the people were keen,
the sun was bright, there was no fight.
There was joy, in every girl and boy,
the mountains are old, and the tales are told,
and that is the land before.

~ Wesley

  1. I can really picture what you describe in your poem! And the last line makes me wonder ... before what? I'm curious.

  3. Joe says, "I love it!"
    Josh says, "Sounds Lord of the Ringsy." This is a compliment. He liked it too. :)

  4. I love poems and when I was much younger use to write them all the time. I love this one and the rhyming (sp), it makes sense and is very positive and uplifting.

Be kind! As these are primarily kids' creative works - and many are works-in-progress - please keep comments POSITIVE! :) Consider what you liked, what you learned and what inspires you. Thanks!
