    in the wind, petals blow
    branches sway
    feelings grow
    in a world where no one sees
    what goes on
    behind the trees
    screaming laughter tears the sky
    you're left there
    to wonder why
    they're looking down
    reading your mind
    because they know
    it's almost time
    so travel on
    follow the road
    the gravel ripping at your souls
    but don't look back or the city will burn
    come back to us and share what you've learned

    Very nice. It sticks in my head like a song and is very melodious. Good job!

    the poems of yours i have seen so far are decent your metaphors are a bit fill in the blank.

    The ending gets a bit choppy.

    The lack of punctuation comes off as sloppy and careless.

    I find this one to be rather generic, but overall it flows nice and is well written.

    one of your strengths is story telling, if i had to give out a shout.

    I imagined some elves or fairy's in the tree tops, looking down at a little red riding hood type character who happens to be walking through the enchanted forest. No dialog was spoken between the parties, just a mental energy connection. Danger or fear in store for the traveler?

    You seem to have a poetic mind. You should keep writing.

    I think you meant "petals" not "pedals". And ditto to what yyy said.
