A Few Different Poems

Falling Away

On the dark cliff
Over wild seas
He hates everything
Except his girlfriend
He closes his
Eyes and jumps
While his girlfriend looks away

Falling love

In the world
On the land
There is a man who
Waits on the sand
For the one
His precious love
To ask her into marriage

Shells

In the forest
Amongst the trees
The jaguar waits
For the hunter it sees
To move away
When suddenly
He is seen

Hey Alex,
Can I do some editing? I really like the first poem, its sad.

Falling Love:
In the world
On the land
There is a man
Who waits on the sand
For the one who is
He precious love
To ask for her hand
in marriage.

Shells:
You can't really use "in the" twice in a row. what about amid or amidst the trees? And the hunter passes away? It sounds like he's waiting for the hunter to die, and not waiting to kill him. But whatever.

Don't yell at me too much, I just love editing too much.
