I Can Laugh Now

When once I can sit
And feel
And the air around me
Doesn't so much breathe
As it relaxes,

Whensomuch as
Head tilted back
Eyes asunder
The sky envelopes me

Spring

Dawning nights

I can laugh, now,
After the long winter
After the shards of sky fell
Melted
Were gone

I can laugh now
Mouth wide open
Toward that yawning moon

    Eyes asunder

    I can laugh, now,
    After the long winter
    After the shards of sky fell
    Melted
    Were gone

    I can laugh now
    Mouth wide open
    Toward that yawning moon
    absolutely speaking the truth,
    groove....

    its hot inhere.....;)
    A whisper and a thrill
    A whisper and a chill

    ^^^ I agree. I felt that some of the lines didn't flow into each other very well. I do like the poem just feel that it could flow better. Sorry.

    Try decapitalising the line beginnings and tightening up syntax a little. I think it could work well.
