Although I have not been posting, I have been writing on and off. So, once again, I embark on a challenge that I began in 2016, promising myself to never miss National Poetry Writing Month. I bring you Day One.
I grasp the air to stop it
Still it fades into darkest night
I reach up into emptiness
But I cannot grab the light

I burn with a fire
And quench your desire
All with the touch of my hands
No choice can you make
Your soul I will take
I’m more than you can withstand
As flames light the sky
Mischievous, sly
And fall to the earth from above
The land will ignite
With passion’s delight
As you feel my lust for your love
I will lead you astray
Then wash it away
With an iciness kept deep inside
From my clutch you can’t run
I have chosen the one
My hunger cannot be denied

Come lie with me
Among the wildflowers
Fragrant with the promise
Of mornings first light
Come lie with me
As sunlight dances upon us
Under skies of blue
And faceless clouds
Come lie with me
Amidst the moonlit shadows
Gently caressing the night
A fantasy of stars
Dancing in the heavens
Come lie with me
And dream
Of yesterdays and wildflowers
Of sunlight and clouds
Of moonlight and stars
And tomorrows yet to come

Gossamer strings
By the light of the moon
My violin sings to the sky
Awakening crowds
Of birds in the clouds
Playing ethereally
My fiddle and I

Hello everyone!
I’m excited to tell you about a new group I’ve started on Facebook called “Let’s Talk Poetry and More!”
This group is all about who your favorite poets and passages are. I hope you’ll consider joining me, as we learn more about the poets of our time, and the ones that have long since past. This is not a group for self-promotion. I will be opening up the group twice a month for that, so be sure to look for those posts.
My goal is to be able to help you discover other poets you may not be familiar with, and learn together. Don’t be afraid to ask questions, or even answer questions asked by others.
I will not add you to the group. You need to click the JOIN button. We all have many groups we are involved in and it’s only right to respect your privacy.
I hope you decide this is a nice place to settle. Tea, coffee and cookies are always waiting. 🙂
