Click hereBy evening the Cimmarron
will flow over me.
Thick, crimson blanket
of tepid water soothing
my eyes and ears
with it's aimless current.
Warmed and comforted
in a cradle of mud
till my form drifts away
from the sun.

LeBrozover 17 years agoLate congrats on the greenie, though I wonders, who or what is immersed in the water?
Bridget69about 19 years agothat is very well deserved. Leisurely and relaxing flow throughout.
Anonymousabout 19 years agoAs for the E, congrats! As to the commentor who did not think it was deserving, poppy cock. It is the editor's choice and taste. Pablo Nerudo's forged poem did not get an E. I got a bunch once and could not tell why-- it is the editor's decision. :)

You may wish to edit it yourself and remove the apostrophe.
"with it's aimless current."
WickedEveabout 19 years agothe E, I would have commented on this poem, because it's very nice. Good poem.
duckiesmutabout 19 years agoYour poem has been mentioned in Monday's New Poems Reviews.
(To the previous comments, it seems the only person who can/should decide who receives the editor's notice is the editor. And the editor obviously liked this one.) :)
Tathagataabout 19 years agopresume to tell anyone else they didn't deserve an award they were given.
I think this poem is beautiful in it's simplicity, it's descriptiveness, and the smooth lull it creates.
It's not easy to write something that creates such a feeling of languor with so few words.
Thank you for sharing the poem and congratulations on the E
