I like the images you convey. They are very fluid and restful.
You evoke a distant time of charm and magic. I think this could easily be made into a charming story -- like a positive Hansel and Gretel fable.
But -
Poetically, I am a slave to structure. Many enjoy this form of poetry, but I believe they are seeking the freedom of poetic form without the requirements of prosaic plot elements and other restrictions.
If the words can flow in a mesmerizing way, painting a calm, reflective image gradually, I think it could make a very effective form. -- That would require more length, more detail, more magic, but not necessarily structured rhyming.

Yeah, most poems I write turn out in free-verse form, and don't involve rhyming or a set rhythm.
Thanks for the feedback! :)

LOL! We all need our morning fix. For me, it's tic-tacs. I'm not awake 'til I've had one. (Yep, I'm addicted to tic-tacs. Thankfully they're cheap. :] )
Thanks for your comments!

Woke up, fell out of bed.
Dragged a comb, across my head.
Found my way downstairs,
And drank a cup.
Looking up, I noticed I was late, hah hah hah.
Found my coat, and grabbed my hat.
Made the bus, in seconds flat.
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke.
Somebody spoke and I wnet into a dream.

This is gonna sound bad, but one of the activities in school that I loathe is ... poetry analysis. *hangs head in same* I am so bad.

Poetry analysis sounds dumb to me. Poetry is art and as such is seen differently by different people, including the poet. As you know I write a lot of lyrical poems. Some are light in nature and others have deep meaning presented in a casual way. Some people love my poems some people hate them. I love my poems or I would bother writing them.
Art is for the artist. If the viewer or reader likes it too, great.

Art is for the artist. If the viewer or reader likes it too, great.I think so, too. I'm also a painter; I work with the image I'm painting until I think it looks good. If somebody else likes it, yay. If they like it after I'm dead, double yay. ^_^
