Earth is a poem
with verses that cascade through color
stanzas that grow ridged by sun
speechless beauty,that can only be described
with a sigh
Earth is a fairy-Tale
and I hope the forever will last
for I,am in love with the beast
because beauty wasn't natural enough for me
The sun's gaze is pulling me by ponytail
so let light lead....
me away....
closer to God's good grace
Earth is a cold sing-along-song
shivering in shimmerence,around an Indian beautific breeze
surcomming to the rhythm
as it oozes through melody
April showers cleanse us with radiance
a thorned object spurs from the dirt
the moonlight wraps around blue fingertips
rubber-bands wove the fabric of my braids
it all....let's me know I'm alive...

It is sad that Richard will not be able to fulfill his promise. I've bumped this to see if anyone can come up with some constructive responses to this piece. I think it has a great deal of potential.
An' it harm none, do what ye will. Blessed Be.

So totally just some thoughts, maybe helpful maybe not. I'm no expert on form or much of anything poetry related.
This is a great concept and almost there, but I really feel it needs a strong closing line or stanza, a punch of imagery or meaning, mainly I am commenting hoping that all of us, including you, can re-examine this together cause it's such a cool idea.

^something about this line, hmmmm help from the crowd ?
speechless beauty,that can only be described

^starting the sentence with and weakens the imagery/metaphor
maybe "I hope ever-after will last" ? or somethiong
