Walk along the woodland track,
Where branches arch to cloak the sun.
When days of rain have left their sheen
And all the boughs are glistening black.
A sheltered corner shows it's face.
It breathes a different air.
It speaks of untold secrets
Which may be hidden there.
Darkened hollows-
An embrace of boughs,
Will bid you step inside.
Walk forward, fearless in to this place
If you possess an open mind-
Your eyes believe in what you feel
And your senses are attuned.
For whispers of the wind draw near
And all it's secrets you will hear.
This would make a nice intro
This would make a nice intro to a fairy tale ... what will happen to the young lad/maiden as they enter the enchanted arbor?

I was suggesting facebook -- so I can read them in my facebook newsfeed. At least your works are original--most everything else on facebook is just reposts of reposts.
Ah right, well as you know
Ah right, well as you know I've put up a couple on F.book, but I'm not really comfortable doing it. Guess its a confidence thing, Don't want people who know me to think, "what's she putting that rubbish on there for?" I know you say you don't care what people think and if mine were as good as yours neither would I. personally I like mine, and between you and I, think they're ok.But embarrassed to post really. Sorry, this is a long reply.
I think your works are good
I think your works are good too. If people don't like what you post--then they don't have to read them. Anyway, there are a lot of people that like reading poetic works. So--post if you have a notion..

I'll give it a go then :-) If they moan I'll say you made me, haha X

That was wowey !!!!!!!!!!! A sailor swears on his oar/ore.
The wondrous magnificence of nature
Path under the canopy of leafy bowers
Just washed clean after a shower
Silence reigns,peace dwells,a sailor tells
Listen!! Hark!! Your words are true blue
It's a wonder how for so long I didn't read you !!
