Old fairy lullaby dots

-------------------------------------------

When all nostrils will be filled with earth
And motion will die a slow agonising death
There will still be someone singing in the forest

When dreams will burn out and desire end
Words will explode and make old time bend
There will still be someone singing in the forest

When eyes will expire and all colours fade
Stars will finally explode and free space dilate
There will still be someone singing in the forest

  Darn you, now I am going to be thinking about this one for the rest of the night and listening for a lilting voice coming from the woods behind my house. Oh well, insomnia here I come.

  Very nice verse. The rhyme was good, maybe could have been better. The flow of your poem was right on. I particularly liked how you ended each stanza with: "There will still be someone singing in the forest"

Nice job.

  gave me goosebumps! once again you paint a brilliant picture and have captured the eternity of art and the finality of life. I am inspired and if Yeats were around to read this I'm certain that he would be quite honored

  Is this... I keep getting the feeling that no matter how dark it may seem, ther will always be a shred of hope live.
Not crazy about the repetition but it does go with the poem so I'm not totally against it. As usual we are treated to your fantastic visual snippets of a vivid clarity that sets your style in a class of its own. well done!

  I adore anything to do with fairies so obviously the title grabbed me. Good write - just not clear on what you mean by "make old time bend".

  Very nice piece is the first thing that comes to mind... its called a lullaby but I wonder what kind of music would go with it?
Only one mistake..
Agonizing... ^.^ just a spelling error... I think... I should probably check that to be sure... but I'm almost positive... either way... check it just to be sure when I'm not haha
Good piece again ^.^
