Twilight reaches for the night

When darkening clouds invade

Covering the last of sun

With thick and dusky shade

Disguised within a blackening sky

Luminous shadows emerge

Eventide, sunset’s light

When day and night converge

Caught upon the breeze

Each seed a piece of new life

Drifting in the wind

unicorn-1999549_960_720I shall hide

Behind this tree

And watch this

Gentle majesty

Drink the water

Standing there

Casting an aura

In moonlight’s air

Beautiful creature

Majestic and free

I behold from afar

In silent reverie

Open Poem to WordPress (part 2)

I guess it’s time, once again
To write another letter
And try to explain to WordPress
That change isn’t always better

It was great when we could see
The posts our readers liked
When clicking on the bell
I already know my blog name
C’mon WordPress, what the hell?

And get it together with Facebook
So sharing works the right way
I’m tired of having to battle you two
I hope you see it, my way

Though I can cut Sir Facebook
A little bit of slack
His service is free, at least to me
So I tolerate the flack

But not when it comes to WordPress
We have a right to know
When changes that don’t
Make any sense
In our faces, you will throw

The reader’s still a jumble
When poetry is shared
Please dear WordPress
Fix this mess
And show us that you care

I guess that’s all I’ll say for now
I’m hoping that you’ll see
How simple an announcement
About the changes
Can truly be

Just pop it in an email
And send it on its way
So we can be prepared
Some how
To face a WordPress day

#TBT ~ Unafraid

#TBT, desire, fire, flames, free verse, love, Night Owl Poetry, poems, poetry, Throwback Thursday, Unafraid

 

Like a moth to a flame

I am drawn to you

Knowing if I get too close

You will burn me

Yet I fly ever closer

Unafraid to feel the fire
