Would you?

Hi Firebird, I love this poem. I particularly like the "scarecrow of my soul", it gives rise in my mind to two totally different intepretations:

1. The person in the piece has a soul that is tattered, standing alone in a field, waiting for their reluctant lover to come to them.

2. Perhaps the scarecrow is doing its job, and keeping him away.

I shall ponder upon it.

Really like the images in this Firebird,

"Would you scatter the seeds
of self -doubt to the seven winds
and mask our fall
behind a cloud of uncertainty?"

love these lines, beautiful,

Shirley.

Thank you both so much. So pleased you liked it x:)

'If you could only see
the scarecrow of my soul,
Would you scale
the hedges of my heart
and navigate the fields of time?'

- those first few lines are just brilliant, Firebird. The whole poem flows so well and is full of brilliant images ;)

Fantastic imagery, strong opening, agree with Magic.

However, feel it loses 'punch' towards the end...
