What do you think of this poem?

i wrote this myself and many at my school like it. i was just wondering on your opinions...

A Time to Remember

With sand

Gently sifting

Between our

Open palms

And sand

Deeply wedged

Between our

Feet and toes

We remembered

The times

We spent

On this

Very beach

Flirting,

Splashing,

Simply

Listening

Listening

To the

Drone of

The waves

Listening

To the

Beating of

Our hearts

Listening

To the

Innermost part

Of our souls

Knowing

Someday,

This would

All end

    I think it is good because it is graphic, shows details that can be visualized and which belong to each other; the only jarring element is 'the innermost part of our souls' because there you have left your own pictures and, although not deliberately, used a cliché.

    Your poem is much better than the one that follows oin one of the answers - by far.

    it is nice. I don't know your age, but it shows some maturity of your soul. as a beginner poet, you have done very well. now, if I may show off, here is something I wrote a couple hours ago. you are, I think, the first to see it. Here it goes:

    Lovers’ dreams

    Night shares a lot of dreams

    To those struck by moon’s shiny beams.

    Dreams of love,

    Brought by a small white dove.

    Dreams of the great red rose,

    In front of which time froze.

    Dreams of raging fire,

    Of a lover’s burning desire.

    Lovers afar

    Are brought together by the wish upon a star.

    Dreamers walk through the hall of time,

    Until the dawn’s first chime.

    tell me what you think of it
