Take Flight, Dear Crow of Mine

Take Flight, Dear Crow of Mine
Written by Adam M. Snow

Take flight, take flight dear crow of mine.
Why perch you calmly on a pine?
The world we live in great design,
see yourself in what life entwined.
Spread your wings in the divine;
take flight, take flight, dear crow of mine.

All is well and all is fine,
see how the sun to west incline,
let your feathers' flutter shine.
lift your voice, my nightly sign.
With you do I myself entwine;
go forth, take flight, dear crow of mine.

A very nice poem, Adam.

Comparisons with Poe's "The Raven", yes, but also original in its own right.
I love the rhyme scheme used and the use of repetition, giving this a somewhat Elizabethan texture, something i am quite fond of as a poet myself.

Good Job!

My favorite line is "With you do I myself entwine"
The sounds read a soft encouragement to really take flight.

Damn... you're a pretty fine writer.

I have no critique... what I read seems perfect to me.

My issues with you remain none the less.

the symphony and nirvana and peace in imagined flight of reason, the senses - instinct and dreams taking over

Wow! This is superb. A nice advice applicable to all....to spread our wings and take our flight...to move on with our life.
Thanks for the share.

This is very nice, I like the flow of the words. It does seem like it could be a song.

I enjoy the challenge you have given us in the phrasing. Like mocking the convention that leads us to read line by line.
