The Drain

Poem Commentary

This is relatively old, and just really different. What do you guys think of this short, enjambed style?

The Drain

Water drop
Journies through lands,
Falling through the drain--
Winding down
Like liquid lies,
Disintergrating
Into the ground
To be never seen

Again.

But remember, the water rises again in the heated mist back to the glorious sky!

Aha! That is very true! You have a point there :]

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
