A Day like Any Other ~ #poetry #RDP

A day like any other, though rain had darkened the sky

The clouds raced at a furious pace, the birds forgot to fly

Leaves came down in small twisters, caught upon the wind

Autumn begins to bid adieu, and the trees feel quite chagrined

Light
Across
Barren lands
Empty branches
Reaching for the sky
Morning rises to meet
Its white puffy clouds, afloat
Softening the signs of sadness
Tethered here on this desolate earth
For which, I fear, there is no other choice

So, I thought, let’s do it again!Image result for party gif

 For those of you who are not aware what a blog party is let me break it down. Generally speaking, a blog party is an online gathering for bloggers of all kinds to meet and engage with one another.

  2. Leave a Comment! Say hi and tell us who you are and what your blog…

Seeds of Solitude – #NovemberWriting #poetry

Morning awakens from its slumber
Shaded, misty blue, against the night
Quietly, I sit in this tree to ponder
What it is that summons me to the light

I find myself in this solemn place
Each day, it grows much stronger
The feeling I get, when I am here
How I wish it would stay much longer

But the frost’s below me, on the ground
The telltale signs of winter’s calling
Bringing emptiness to autumn trees
As all at once, the leaves stop falling

Seeds of solitude, embrace me
Though your leaves have turned to brown
May I stay here with you, upon this limb?
I’ve no desire to ever get down

Ascend – #poetry #RDP

When my world is so disconnected

And I can’t seem to tie up loose ends

I take a step back, breathe in, exhale

And let my worries, to the sky, ascend
