This is first poem I ever wrote that I wasn't forced to write for some English class in school. It started from a word set that was posted to AFD by Dave/yLaerin.
The words were: remember, storm, quiet, howling, wings, sea, green, dazed, white, faith, ending, and raven.
I remember...
the stormy shore
and the quiet of the desert
I remember...
the howling of wolves
and the thunder of pheasant wings
I remember...
the dark and brooding sea
and the dazzling green of grass in spring
I remember...
the white of a young bride's dress
and the faith that she had in her husband's love
I remember...
the ending of life
and drifting into the raven night
