These are a couple of my assignments for my Creative Writing class.  Tell me whatcha think.

Memory Lost

A tranquil ocean beneath a clear sky,

Vividly reflecting images of the past.

The sun shining radiantly,

Watching over the shimmering expanse.

A cold wind!

Dark clouds abruptly stampede across the heavens.

The reflections shattered in the rippling sea,

The images sink below its gloomy surface.

Unfamiliar swells grow into waves of uncertainty,

The sun veiled by the thunderous maelstrom.

All self vanishes,

As darkness swallows the chaotic waters.

Untitled

Time stands frozen,

As still as the towering trees,

In the woods where the wise owl waits.

Patiently, the wise owl waits

For the Night, which will never fall,

To shade the Earth with its dark shroud.

Patiently, the wise owl waits

For the Moon, which will never rise,

To light the Sky with its soothing luster.

Patiently, the wise owl waits

For the Stars, which will never shine,

To glorify the Heavens with their distant gleam.

Alas, the wise owl waits in vain

Beneath the Sun, which will never set

And relieve the World of its fiery radiance.

For Time stands frozen,

As motionless as the majestic mountains,

In the woods where the wise owl waits.
