I sometimes hide my eyes
Behind darkened glasses
Care to look at the world
Through rose colored flashes

Psychedelic prisms
I watch the colors blend
Wishing it could be like this
Throughout the world, again

Hippies spreading love
Peace and understanding
So tired of the ones, who
Just keep on demanding

I will not hide forever, no
Behind this tinted glass
Cause I’ll never be the one
To follow all, en masse

March to the beat of a different drummer
I refuse to ever become just a number….

Like a spider’s web

Droplets dance on feathered ends

Aglow in sunlight

Adrift, amongst clouds of white
My balloon seeks out the morning light

Sunbeams shine, the warmth it soothes
As one with the wind, my home moves

Blowing freely, with nothing to tether
Together, we fly, light as a feather

With the crisp, clean air that fills my chest
I’ll sail, forever, on this liberating quest

Rise Up – #poetry of a #faerie – #NaPoWriMo

Wings so golden
Gossamer strands
Hair of white
With the palest hands

She hides from sight
So they cannot see
Behind tall reeds
Shroud in mystery

A fae like no other
Floral crown on her head
Unspoken beauty
On a lush verdant bed

Eyes looking down
As tears flow from within
She can’t catch her breath
Her mind, in a spin

How could they leave her?
This fragile little sprite
Who can she cling to?
There’s no one in sight

Saddened by betrayal
She weeps, silently, and still
Gathers herself, defiantly
Born with a stronger will

Knowing now, what she must do
To forget this horrid pain
She’ll stretch out her wings, take to the sky
And rise up, once again!

Dragon’s keep

Where wee ones close by

Sit and play

Without care

Knowing they are protected

By winged warriors
