Wishing for Yesterday ~ #RomanticTuesday #poetry

Daydreaming, thoughts, only of you

While sunlight comes, streaming through

The trees in the glen, where I hide away

And sit here, just wishing, for yesterday

This was our place, to make memories last

Now, it’s my place, of memories, past

I come here to listen, be one with the breeze

Sadness has claimed me, as time didn’t freeze

The moments we had, they’re no longer here

But you’ll stay in my heart, always, my dear

So, I’ll let the sun shine, let it warm my face

As I quietly sit, in this now sacred place

Because, I know, one day, together we’ll be

Until then, I’ll be waiting, right here, for thee

Only fools believe

When the Earth lacks sunlight’s gleam

Nothing ever grows

Karma ~ #poetry #AugustWriting

She tried to run, but never got far
The other would find her, she knew

No walls, nor doors, did stop the chase
The nightmare, always quickly grew

It was like looking at herself, in a mirror
This ghost that followed her around

Frightened more, by what she saw
In the halls, of this battled ground

Same hair, same shape, her identical twin
Lavishly clad, she dressed for the night

Yet, she, in leather, known as the warrior
Was afraid to take on this sibling fight

For she knew her sister wouldn’t believe
It was never meant to happen at all

But Karma knew better, she always did
The warrior was about to fall

At it Again ~ #poetry #muse

Tags

My muse is at it, once again

This time she’s sprouted wings

To make her journey faster, she says

Who believes in such a thing?

“I’m tired of sitting on the shelf”

She whines, with her usual flare

“I can’t do everything by myself!”

I yawn, like I really don’t care

And she flutters by me, nudging

I try to swat her away, but I miss

Back and forth, she flies about

I don’t think I signed up for this

But she knows just how to get me

Awakening this dreamer, she can!

It’s quite impossible, to try to sleep

Those wings of hers, sound like a fan!!
