Poetry Today

The night is broken…

I braced your back

Against my hands

As I poured my words over you

Poetry tracing the shape

Of your body

Tasting

Needing

The light, warm and sweet

Between your soul

A solitary longing

Coming undone

The night is broken

Screaming out our need

In reckless abandonment©

Poetry Today

The Weeping of Time…

Dawn breaks

With jagged breath

The chill settled

In hearts too cold

To feel pain

And eyes too bitter

To see the stars

And stripes

Weeping©

Poetry Today

Describe the color green…..

GREEN

A well overflowing

The deep pool of your eyes

Hearts filled with hope

The sweet kiss of dew

The earth reborn

Bare skin brushed by spring

My lips tracing

The hollows of your spine

The color of life

Clinging to the last

Ray of sunshine©

Poetry Today

I am still hopeful….

I am still hopeful, deep down in the silence

Beneath the darkness Aflame still burns

I’ve seen too much

I’ve bear too much

I’ve prayed too much

To give in now

I’m painting a rainbow

Over my scars

I’m washing the ugliness

From my tongue

I am speaking to the mountain

And the walls and the empty spaces

Receptive souls will hear

The broken hearted will hear

Grieving families will hear

The children will hear

The confused and disillusion will hear

They will come

They will listen

For in our bellies

Rooted deep we have an innate

Desire to see change

To feel hopeful

So today,

Come as you are

Hear my voice

Let change begin with you and me

One voice

One word

Softly spoken

Are you listening©
