Closer to Her


To control destiny
And find a place
He looks her over
Sleeping grace
He imagines Heaven
A breeze through a willow
To long for reincarnation
He would be her pillow

    I missed your post last week. Couldn't find it to log on. Anyway, I really liked this one, reading it out loud had such a nice flow. What a nice thought, to come back as someone's pillow! Lovely!

    Short, yet very deep...I loved "a breeze through a willow".

    This is a lovely poem. I like the strength to re-invent the narrator that is found in the lines.

    This rolls quite nicely. I like the lighter touch of reincarnating as an inanimate object, close to the soul of a beloved.

    I think perhaps I have been too much of a romantic these last few prompts. I will try to take a different direction just to change things up!
