Finished

Jan31

I’ve completed my task
I’ve reached my goal
A new project awaits
A piece of the whole

I’m not leaving for good
Just taking a break
Consulting the muse
While nibbling a cupcake

Well, I did it. Thanks to Linda, I actually pushed myself to write something every single day in January. Some days it wasn’t easy, but I stuck with it. I think I will go back to writing when I feel inspired instead of forcing it for awhile. Plus, I have some personal projects in the pipeline that I need to spend some time working on. Thank you for bearing with me this month as I stretched my wings.

Anger

Jan30

Anger bubbles and boils
It slithers into the soul
Like a snake as it uncoils
And drags me down into a hole

Then maturity takes the reins
And puts anger back in its box.
The words spoken cause pain
Like sticks, stones and rocks

Anger has no place
If tolerance can increase
Let’s try to make the case
For understanding and peace

The World Will Stop Turning

Jan26

Can you feel the heartache?

Julian Froment's Blog

JaguarPoetry of sorts – because I am out of sorts, preparing sadly and badly for a flight to the UK. Dedicated as always to the love of my life and future wife, Ionia.

In a few short hours

My world will stop turning

This separation of ours

This heart filled with yearning

 

I know it will not last

I know there’ll be an end

Eventually this will pass

Our life as we intend

 

Still, it does not stop the hurt

It does not stop the pain

Even though we have

Everything to gain

 

Finally together

No longer forced apart

Always and forever

One single heart

Noise

Jan26

A quick little tanka for Charles as I feel his pain

Wild cacophony
Of sounds creating chaos.
Where are the whispers?
Banging, clanging and yelling
When soft sounds could work as well.
