The sky tells its story

It speaks of light in the dark

Though storm clouds chase the day away

The heavens leave their mark

Reminding me, this too, shall pass

The light will return again

This is the hope I cling to

While I listen to the rain

beauty-655958_960_720
Bathed in salty ocean brine

A beauty soars, her body shines

Amongst the sunlit, aqua waves

In graceful motion, unenslaved

Upon the rocks, that rise and swell

Under her mystical, watery spell

She’ll claim whatever lies below

Her magic is the ocean’s flow

cave-912219_960_720
This rock is now my home, a place
I travel on, through outer space

A flight to galaxies, still unknown
Adventures, by myself, alone

Standing in the open air
I see Jupiter, floating there

Watching me, a leery eye
As I go quietly, drifting by

In awe of all the mysteries
On this planet, I can see

Ribbons of waves across, a band
Could I ever walk this land?

Shall I journey far across?
And glide, just like an albatross

In an atmosphere, unconfined
Perhaps, a chance to just unwind

Or should I stay here, bide my time
In this universe, quiet sublime

Rain filled days

When a body aches

For warmth

Only to be met

With the icy tears

Of a mournful cloud

The Door to Nowhere ~ #ThursdayDoors #poetry

img_2008b
A door unopened, here remains
Through sharpest winds and icy rains

Where it leads, I do not know
Perhaps it’s only here for show

But what is that, a creature there?
Who looks completely unaware

Nary a movement does he make
I don’t think that he’s awake!!

I’ll walk ever quietly, to the door
This one I’ve never been before

Slowly, so he does not rouse
Toward the door, just let him drowse

Pray, the hinges will not creak
When I open the portal to take a peek

 

This gate was in the middle of nowhere on a nature trail.  The little creature is actually the root system from a fallen tree!!
