Come share the “DREAMED IN VERSES”!
last night
I dreamed in verses
pages as my skin
and you
an ancient desk
upon the porch
looking out on summer
where every breath is slowed –
lines were caught
and whispered
to the dark
. . .
Come “BE MY DISTRACTION, HANDSOME”!!!!
Come and enjoy Chrissy’s – ME AND MY WRITING”
I don’t care what people say
It’s time to look the other way.
If I want to write – I will
with or without a copyright.
Poems, fiction and mysteries,
for children and adults.
Whatever takes my fancy – oh yeah…
It’s what I like to do.
My grammar may not be perfect
and rhyme is not my forte
But whatever I write –
I write with all my heart.
Grandchildren love my nonsense,
Friends enjoy a jingle.
I only write for them and those
Who enjoy my writing most.

Please come and read Megha’s uplifting and inspiring – “STRANDED” and let her know if you had any favorite lines.
Oh! why I’m here
This world built on illusions
World based on realities
World based on hope, anger, dreams
I know your intentions are clear
I know your dreams, your plans
I know how it works
I know how it ends
It’s just I’m stuck in middle which has no beginning no end
Running out of gas in a place which does not exist
Stranded in the middle of nowhere
Lost on the verge of earth
Living a dream based on illusions
People wake up
And smell the earth after the rain
Dance in the light
Smell the roses
Kiss the child
Let yourself be loved
Feel your ecstasy
Quench your thirst
Paint your own rainbows
Don’t wait for the weather to change
Feel the butterfly on the tip
Smile for no reason
Be indifferent to sorrows
Feel the tears
Hold the palm and feel the warmth
Be the company

Do you ask the same question Mark asks in his “POEM: WHERE DID TIME GO”
Check out his blog too!
A slightly different version published inVirtual Library.
I walk down the street
looking at my reflection
in each car window.
I see a wrinkled face,
a bent-over body
and wonder if that’s
really me.
It was just a few short years ago
I walked on the same block,
looked in similar car windows
and saw a young girl in shorts
with long flowing hair
and a bounce in her gait.
Come read Jane’s and learn why “THERE ARE THINGS IN THE DARK” that should stay in the dark!!!
Word count achieved, so time for a poem. This is for the 16th day of unreason, Jilly’s Jim Harrison challenge.
~ Harrison from Skull / Songs of Unreason
There are things in the dark
that should stay in the dark,
sorrows that should be foregotten,
swept away on the black river
that flows into the nameless sea.
I take your hand in the night
and find a light among the shadows.
We follow ourselves, dance steps leading,
while the path creeps and the path winds,
but when the morning comes,
there will be flowers in the meadow.

Covered in Amber
the residue of my tears
washing over my memories
down through the years
from long, long ago,
the dark ages of time

Come read Didi’s great post – “TRUTHFULNESS AND EGO”
Some only want to hear
What they want to hear
Flattering words for their ego
To hide the truth?
Truthfulness goes along the way of honesty
Is not pretending or making a show…
