I have seen Maelstroms Eternal
By: Adam M. Snow

I write with flowers of ink,
thy love poured out on page,
in a slumbering alder away in endless flight;
swaying with the stars, so white

'gainst the black night sky.
Facing the horizons, on the calm black waters called -ink.
-I write for thee that thy heart be free.
I have seen maelstroms eternal,
mount in my soul but endless;
-An abyss without thee, I dare thee not.
By starlight the rushes lean over thee wide:
-The ink on the page is erased,
-The text is long forgotten.

by starlight the rushes lean over.... this is a lovely poem with a tinge of melancholy.

Interesting piece. There's a kind of psychology to it that leaves something for the reader it seems. I like things like "horizons" instead of "horizon" for example, and the archaic English is very fine. The ending lines wrap it up with a nice twist in a way. Excellent write which is not the case with this comment perhaps. Thanks!
