The Mountain

Upon this mountain,
I shall stand,
Awaiting grace and peace
In the sand,
Dug are my feet,
Preparing for the grand wave,
Dark  thick clouds over head,
But calm am I,
Anarchy consumes the lost,
So upon this maintain,
I shall wait,
Perched at the edge.

  1. Liked this a lot. I love how you mentioned things like how you dug your feet. It was a really relaxing poem and sounds like something that is read during a meditation session. Good job. Also really confident sounding.

  3. It seems like the person in the poem is waiting for something and it seems like bad things are coming yet this person awaits calmly knowing that it will all be alright. I like it.

  4. "I shall wait,
    Perched at the edge." The apprehensiveness of waiting can be translated out of this poem. I liked the poise of the last lines, waiting peacefully.
