THE LEARNING CURVE

THE LEARNING CURVE

That day which brought a thousand memories
with haze which jewelled our peaceful path.
We listened to the sound of summer,
the trees which whistled whilst movement grasped
the tender faint breeze, til dusk til dusk.

A golden language laid back with splendour
whilst rabbits hid and squirrels roamed
We counted diamonds within the haze
whilst discussing myths already combed
So like our host we roamed we roamed.

The woodland welcomed our weary souls
then cleansed our wisdom with ancient spells
We were not alone as the drum beat rumbled
as the wind took haste then chimed those bells
Enticing my spirit to dwell, we dwelled

We found our way throughout this land
pass fallen oaks and willows dreaming
the colours enriched young naive eyes
the artist delivered his creation with meaning and
with every step my vengeance was now healing

We were lost on a journey which reminded us well
of what we were searching for - what matters the most?
How did we get here? but who really cared?
We could now start a new and sweep of the dust
that blinded us well and reflected the doubt

The doubt now destroyed - the future now bright!

(I chose "text to speech" for narration just to experiment a little on this video with robotic voices. in future I will be using my own voice plus other "text to speech" voice.")

Added to my Poet's Corner playlist, and excellent

choice of words, though I would prefer to hear your own voice, to feel the emphasis properly.

[SuburbanPoet]

Thanks for the comment, and thanks for adding me to your poet's corner playlist. I will be using my own voice in future. :)

A good first offering on youtube but please try your own voice. i loved the visuals but the robotics seemed to have no place in your wooded environment. i look forward to future postings with interest. Thanks

[SuburbanPoet]

Thanks for the comment, I will be using my voice in the future but I do like to experiment with robotic voices.

[NewBrazdolph]

nice, but why did you use the robotic voice from YT?

[SuburbanPoet]

YT? lol, to be honest I was trying out lots of different robotic voices. This voice has been edited over and over by myself until I was almost happy with it. I will be using different voices in the future and even my own! But for now I'll settle for this.

Memories of starlight and walks among the dark paths of the forest. How beautiful do your words unfold a world familiar yet unknown. How kind of you to share your beauty with me.

Such good use of language. And the vid is cool, too.

[PoetLina]

The visuals great, now you have found your feet:p And the embryonic voice will develop to maturity too, it all fits the text so well. Welcome! 5*
