Day Breaks with the Glow

Of Morning Sun Surrounding me

With a Hidden Seduction of Light

Beaming ever so Softly, Guiding me

Through Frosted Doorways of

Evergreens Glistening with Rime

Scattered Blankets laid Perfectly

Down along the Frozen Path

Warming my Journey to you

#TBT ~ Author’s Curse – #poetry

Dry, like a desert’s swirling sand
Blowing across the cracking land

Masked behind the grains, a curtain
Of words, no longer am I certain

Finding no inner deep reward
I rattle, like a dried out gourd

Slipping into imagery
People only I can see

Lost among the dunes piled high
Reflecting on a life gone by

Forever, I wander, to find my way
Visions, thoughts, begin to fray

Into ragged pieces left behind
Cords that can no longer bind

Search again to find the verse
That rids me of this author’s curse

I will not be defined
By the color of my skin
The style of my clothes
Or what shape I am in

My size does not make me
Any different from you
Look in the mirror
It’s all point of view

Society has
No claim over me
Trying to validate
What I refuse to be

But I know better
Than any of they
I know my heart
And with that, I’m okay

Shining above the Glistening Crescent

Smiling down upon the Moon so Young

Venus and Mars Glimmer, Effervescent

Aligned with the Twilight, Carefully Hung

#TBT ~ Darkness Prevails – #poetry #dark

Hidden where the spirits loom

Their shelters torn and tattered

Ethereal beings meet their doom

Lost souls about are scattered

Perched upon her marble tomb

Her body broken, battered

No pleasure left, all consumed

A life once whole, now shattered

In the dank and misty gloom

The shadow of a figure lies….

 

….Darkness prevails when an angel dies
