I like this! The phrasing is excellent. Is it any specific type of poem?

It was based on a poem of the same name by Emily Dickinson who we were learning about at that time. You mentioned my watchers would want previous works by me so I dug up a couple of old writing assignments from my school. The other will be posted most likely tomorrow. Glad you enjoyed it! It's the only poem I think I have ever written!

COOL!

Thanks you very much!

No prob

Its an interesting poem, good, it flows and has good word usage. ^_^

I'm thinking about doing poetry again just because of the amount of praise I've gotten from this poem!
Furrywriter.

Ah....very well written can be very deep if the reader takes the time to think about his/her own dreams.
Great job! Maybe you really should think about doing another poem or two... ^_^

I've honestly considered it!

one word: wow

...or does it explode?

And I would've bet my laptop this was by Langston Hughes, guess I was wrong...

I liked your imagery with the stoplight. I know how you feel, man, I cling stubbornly to prose.

That good huh?
Furrywriter.

Yeah, I thought the same thing Matt! =P

Though, I ALSO recall "A Dream Deferred" being written by Langston and not Dickinson. (but it doesn't really matter to meh) x3

Anyhoo, I too enjoyed the imagery of the stoplight. They were very interesting similes! =P

Whenever I read free verse, I always scramble to find imagery! I'm a closed-form fan myself. =3

I also enjoyed the questioning, though the WHOLE poem was about questioning, so I guess that just means I liked the poem! xD

Very nice!

WRITE MORE...NOWWW!! o.o

Oh ho! "A Dream Deferred" IS by Langston Hughes!

(thought I'd let you know. I don't like correcting people)

No. It's not. It was originally by Emily Dickinson. We learned about it in class. Trust me. I've looked.
Furrywriter.

I'm interested in where you checked, because nowhere on Google can I find Emily Dickinson's "A Dream Deferred." I even looked through the archives at Project Gutenberg, I can't find it, man.

Actually, I found it in a text book. It coulda been outdated and, therefore, WRONG!
Furrywriter.

Ah.

I hope I didn't come off as overly cultured, man.

Ya didn't. Don't worry!
Furrywriter.

Thanks.

Anytime!
Furrywriter.

I actually love intelligent conversations!
