Poem of the Day: September 24, 2007

Somebody did this awhile ago, and I thought it'd be fun to try it again every now and then. So... here goes: please state which poem (posted today, obviously) was your favorite, and if you so choose... why.

Mine was (even though I haven't yet commented on it) "Nicotine Doldrums" by Edgewise.

It's difficult to pick only one from todays submissions, I found several good poems today.

ELYSIAN PARK HEARTS by apple is my choice for the day. Why? The imagery and beauty of this poem took me to the house, let me hear the voices, and allowed me to see the color.

No one should hold people's decicsions against them. This isn't about the best, just about people's favourites.

I wouldn't say its the best that I've read today, there are a few on the forum. I'll go for Elji's Little Red Winter because its the one that has most stuck in my mind today.

I really like An early morning Magritte by Danny Boy. I think that poem is beautiful.
