    a bird should always fly
    thru clouds and trees

    above mountains
    free

    a bird should alway fly

    beauty is caged
    with clipped wings

    captured and kept
    for selfish pleasure

    a bird should always fly
    that is why I cry for her

    Sylvan, I appreciate your observation, rhythm means alot to me and I am glad to hear that I did it well.

    Thanks again

    I hate to be the bad guy... but it just wasnt a good poem in my eyes.

    I would like to see more rhymthem, and more structure. I love the words used in it though, and it was good enough for me to post on... usually when I dont like a poem I just move on to the next one, but this one I felt has a lot more potential to be a great one.

    Good Job, and thanks for sharing ^_^

    care to explain more structure? or rythmn? Im not being defensive of it, its written the way its written and will not change, but I would like to know more of what you mean.

    structure... more lines to excentuate the true meaning of what u are saying, to DESCRIBE more I guess is what Im trying to get at, and use more vivid words.

    Rhythem... with a better Rhythem, it can make the poem more fun to read as well as help out the other areas of the poem.

    Its a good poem, Im not trying to say it isnt =) And im sorry if you feel like im putting it down too much

    very smooth. reminds me of a deaf tone song. i forget the title...but the imagery was of a woman lying down on a glass bed getting her wings clipped. cheers

    no I dont feel that way at all.

    as far as "structure" by your definition, that is the one thing i hate in a poem, I hate too many lines, i hate over description. I dont feel the need to make someone read for 5 minutes to feel what I am saying. I like to use few words, short lines.

    As far a rythmn, I guess that is interpretive. The rythym reads fine to me, but to each his own I guess. thanks for the criticism.
