Birds Flock At Night

by starstruck13

Birds Flock At Night

Observe the serene of a yellow autumn
the colorful sight of our joy
look at the field of oval thistle seeds that land
between the beautiful sound of night
among the golden habitat
where the birds flock at night
and sing a sweet song to their mates
their wings of love enclose each other so very tight
as they lay eggs of sweet devotion
in a straw nest and hardly sleep
waiting for a new day to break forth
sing a new song of love
and fill sweetness to the empty air

There are some lovely phrases, but it's spoiled by grammatical errors, e.g. "the serene", "between" (between what and what?), "among the golden habitat". More attention to such details would allow this to be a very good poem.

      "The serene" is wrong because "serene" is an adjective. Should be "the serenity". "Between" is a 2-place preposition: you can't be between something, only between something and something else, so the sentence as you have it does not make sense. As for "among", you can't be among one thing, you can only be among several things, so "habitat" needs to be "habitats".

          Easily fixed, starstruck13. Change "serene" to" serenity". Replace "between" with "within" and leave out "among" and keep "habitat".

          There is something so peaceful about this poem. Very beautiful. I'm glad that you have shared it here for all of us to read!

I wholeheartedly agree with the above comments. There is a peace that pervades this poem, like those quiet moments just before dawn. The edit ideas are great advice too, they will really polish the piece!
