Poetry – because, well…

Her mind 

might go 

this way 

or that way 

twirl around 

and around 

fall deep 

into thought 

or fly high 

in the clouds 

but one thing 

never changes 

will always be true 

I’m not going to say 

because, well 

i don’t want to.

Poetry – in the dark

waiting

in the dark…

below the grotty

street lamp

soft glow

blurred lines

I know

you’ll never come

but I can not

walk away

so I stand

waiting

in the dark…

for today

is not the day.

Poetry – words

there are times

that i just 

fall in love

with the words

as they trickle down

from the sky 

onto my forehead

cheeks and chest

as i passively delight

in the rippling touch

of every vowel

and consonant.

Poetry – tucked away but not forgotten

i whispered into the night

i told it stories of new

and dreams of old

i closed my eyes

held your hand

so very tightly

may there be a thousand moons

and a thousand rising suns

I will never let go

of the vision i had

tucked into the deepest

darkest corner

of my mind.

Poetry – beauty

caress me softly

sweet breeze

upon my face

this one swollen tear

rolls slowly

gently

down my neck

Let the things

I can not control

flow through my hair 

into the wind

behind me

Restoring calm

breathing in

the beauty

around me

Poetry – Roots

Sometimes

we need to stop

and stand still

for a few moments. 

Stretching downward

allowing your roots

to push deeper, wider

become stronger.

Only then can you

reach out with stability

and upward

without limits.

Smile, relax

and enjoy

the growth.
