Cerulean - Hello Poetry

You know, I really like the letter L. I think most of the important things to us starts with L: - life - locks - love - luck - lemons - liberty - the Lord - lamb - laughter - lucrative Need I say more? Oh, let's not forget Lust. There are also unpleasant things that start with L: - lies - lice - loss - loathing - lament And many, many more. Now that I think of this, life is a big fat series of Ls. Good and bad. Everything in between. The good makes life worth living, the bad makes the good even worth living for. So don't despair. Live for the good Ls. And be strong when the bad Ls come. (Especially lice)

There is A Ga Ping H ole I n M y Heart. Filled with Splintering echoes of my past Blinding blackness Biting chill that has my head in its jaws I am groping at the empty space trying to find the Light switch

Please I say. Please don't go, I beg my grandmother when her breath wavers and her milky eyes land on me. Please don't tell them, I cry to my teacher when she caught me smoking a cigarette on the empty rooftop. Please don't break my heart, I whimper to him when he cradles my wet face in his hands which feels like home. Thank you I say. Thank you for coming, I greet the visitors dressed in black when they whisper and peer at my dry eyes. Thank you for everything, I tell my parents when they left me at the boarding school. Thank you for the gift, I smiled at him when he gave me pearl earrings to adorn my unpierced ears. Of course, Please and Thank you can be beautiful too. Please I say Please keep him safe, I plead to God when my brother left to join the navy. Please come again, I called out to the customers when they stroll out of my bustling café. Please buy me ice cream, I grinned at him when he waved me goodbye over the fence. Thank you I say. Thank you my dear, I chuckled at the little girl who said I looked like a fairy in my wedding dress. Thank you for the surprise, I cried with my best friends when they bounced into my home with pots of birthday food made with love. Thank you for life, I whispered to the trees, flowers, sun, chocolates, myself. They are manners, but they are also much more. tell someone please and thank you today.

When the long arm swings Round and round My eyes follow making me frown and groan When the numbers change One by one My eyes blink wondering where the time has gone Staring at the screen Escaping to An abstract reality However when I hear the tick tock of the clock My breath catches My heart speeds Lead weighing my conscience I know that I am procrastinating.

Listen To the breeze on your cheek To the kiss of the sun To the little shallow creek For they are the symphony Of a simple j o y Awe and adoration Towards life Is a celebration Of being a l i v e Never fail to listen For it brings C o l o u r s To this sometimes Dreary World.

Ode to Life

Listen To the breeze on your cheek To the kiss of the sun To the little shallow creek For they are the symphony Of a simple j o y Awe and adoration Towards life Is a celebration Of being a l i v e Never fail to listen For it brings C o l o u r s To this sometimes Dreary World.
