    Poem Commentary

    It is but a fantasy for one to run fast and discover pristine land.

    PRISTINE LAND

    i want to run fast
    towards the sun
    not looking back
    meet friendly people
    i've never seen

    different .. kind lined faces
    unclosed minds
    beautiful stories to listen to
    interesting experiences
    other people live

    day to day
    somewhere is change
    far from this mad
    destructive scene
    i sense and see

    i close my eyes
    more nature .. is forever gone
    seems there won't be
    any trees left
    to give precious oxygen

    i need to ride the knowing wind
    where it'll take me
    to clean .. cool water
    we can drink

    i'll rush to the ends
    of Mother Earth
    until i find
    what i'm searching for
    pristine land

    I like the idea of pristine land.. and open minds. People are often what make an area worth living in.......

    I know! I have the same dilema, I do. Why would anyone ever want to take down a forest for some ugly gas-station..or stripmalls that arent even bought yet? I don't know sweet M.-I'm think theyre all nutz! 'Bout time to hop on a low-rider and head out to the Black Hills and set up camp, isn't it!! I'll buy the beer,LOL!, This poem is one built on truth, and you once again executed your thought in style!-missed reading you.-tj

    Your poem immediately brought to mind the letter Chief Seattle sent to President Franklin Pierce in 1855, which is now titled "Where Is The Eagle ---Gone". You capture a sad reality. Having grown up in New York City I can understand the meaning of this poem. I used to hop the fence to the local golf course just so I could be in the midst of trees. I am glad I now live in Virginia. Great write.

    Thank you bklynrizz for your insightful comments. The history you've related holds much interest. I love NYC and Virginia!

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.
