Kept in Resolution

A time for ending
A time for beginning
Beginning to make plans
Beginning to make a move
Move to find warmth in Winter’s wisp
Move to find meaning down where the stars sleep

Definitions of Hope

She endures
She defines
Defines the beginning and the end
Defines life after life
Life captured between the glory of fire and water
Life gifted with infinite wishes
Wishes meant to be serene
Wishes to serve as reminders

Tranquility Cove

healing waters caressing a lonely shore
healing hearts meant to mend
mend a spinning mind
mend tiny scars

Thorns of Joy

Bed of roses

Bed of thorns

Thorns of life

Thorns of sin

Sin is the cause

Sin is the lust

Erudite as Weakness

 

 

They wield poison pens

fancying themselves erudite

erudite thirsty for power

erudite scattering ignorance

ignorance spread in minatory threads

Rise Above Today

 

Like air, I’ll rise

like wildfire burning over open prairies, I’ll consume

consume each new opportunity

consume with hunger borne of necessity

necessity frames new directions to follow

necessity leading to anywhere but here

here quiet voices urge me to listen

here demons dance to unsteady beats

Love of One

None as complicated

as the game of love

Love as a puzzle

Love as a gift

Gift immortalized in music

Gift celebrated in poetry

Poetry both savory and sweet

Distorted but Accepted – Blitz Poem

just so many mirrors
just images distorted

distorted but illusive
distorted and unloved

Blitz Poem: 21st Century Words

Blitz Poem

21st Century Words

Walking around naked

Walking around blind

Blind to danger

Blind to reason

Reason to wander

Reason to question

Question the people

Question the times
