A Pocket Full of Poems

Since I get bored sometimes, I decided to start this topic to put in the poems I write. Sure, they won't be the best (especially because I have extreme writer's block), but I'll put everything I've got into them.

This one is titled "The Rose":

I sit in my garden to watch the flowers,

But I could watch that rose for hours.

It sits by a field overlooking the sea,

Its crimson petals bring bliss to me.

But while it may be pretty today,

Its beauty will soon wither away.

What do you guys think of it? I think its kinda short, and kinda boring, what's your opinion? I'll post more soon.

It's very simple, which is good. The only problem I see with it is that you started two lines of your stanza with 'but'. I would try and replace those with something more original . . . and proper.

^ True. I wonder what I could do about that....

Anyway, I was pondering over an idea for all of 30 seconds, and I decided to write a haiku. Here it goes:

As summer's heat sears

Autumn's breeze creeps up on it

Soon the heat fades- gone.

I thought it would be appropriate since autumn is slowly but surely creepin' up on summer.
