A Storm Passes By ~ #poetry #freeverse

The winds blow strong

Like a storm, passing by

Quickly, taking all in its path

Leaves on the trees, rustling

A low pitch whistle, their cry

Of forceful air, as they gather

In a swirling dance, rhythmic

Sending them spiraling

Into places unknown

Much like the night

After the rumbling thunder

Has long been forgotten…

Friday Fantasy ~ Judgement Day – #dark #poetry

Tags

, , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


She was always cranky, when she was tired

Always felt worthless, and so uninspired

No one would listen, to her painful plight

Not even the sunset, would kiss her goodnight

So she plotted anew, gave him just one more chance

He ignored her again, this was not happenstance

The time had now come, with malicious desire

To offer herself, to the one with the fire

The flames grew taller, surrounded her being

And darkness engulfed her, with sparks, ever freeing

She welcomed the demons, she’d kept tucked away

She knew she would need them, on this, judgment day

Rain dampened petals

Still hoping for renewed life

Drink in the sunlight

Friday Fantasy ~ Mistress of Twilight – #poetry

She is the mistress, the start of the night

Blazing blue eyes, that summon twilight

Covering skies, yes, she’s gazing at you

Darkening paths, as the stars become new

Teasing with glimmers, the last of the light

Dreams become real, when she slips out of sight

Off into the Sunset ~ #poetry #freeverse

Let’s sail off into the sunset

Soaking in the blinding light

Of our golden orb, dipping down

Beneath the waters, where we could

Simply float away, on a wave of dreams

Yes, let’s close our eyes now, make it come true

Live this fantasy, as if it is our little secret

Hidden, in the deep blue sea
