Searching

Feb 2015 D W

Ivory Grace

I would like to write but right now that's not going to happen.
I cannot grasp nearly enough words to describe how I feel.
sad, disappointed, confused, hurt, alone
Those are some, but only scratch the surface. So for now I will continue searching.
Not only for words, but for myself, and how to live without you.

Metaphysical Birdcages

Metaphysical Birdcages

A lone bird beats its wings
silently through the rain.
Flying south-west for the winter
as it has no companions to indicate exactly
which way south is.
Somehow born without such instincts
it struggles against the current of wind
continuously reinforcing a mindset
of complete endurance.
So it will trek the stormy skies
for many winters to come -
bound by an endless cycle of
lost-but-just-certain in knowing
it simply has to keep going.

De ja vu

the sky
drizzles
our dinner sizzles
so tired of this
retched soggy
season
some well rounded wine
a good reason
to take the edge off
today's blah-di-da
the dog comes in
muddy
again
I just know
he's going to be
extra
muddy paw friendly
to his mama

Today ...in poem form !

Turning Back Time -1981

Dreams

I am a dreamer I know
For if I had no dreams
I'd have nowhere to go

When a disaster has struck my life
Amid toil and strife
My dreams soothe my pains
And break all the torturous chains
That pin me down to the ground

As music is to a conductor
Living without my dreams
Would be like clothing with
Torn seams

Dreams make my sanity certain
Without my dreams my life is
An empty stage...
Might as well close the curtain

Back at 16/17 years old when I thought rhyme scheme was imperative in a poem .This one made it into my high school literary magazine.I don't even remember writing it ...

Some more before

Some more before

some more wooden plank
it would be whole
bridge the two riverbank
reach its goal!

the creek is narrow tho
high swells tide
dreams do freely grow
on the both side!

the short span looks far
but a few poles
the boy can reach to her
tie the two souls!

some more wooden plank
when finished then
mingle two riverbank
when I come again!

Surviving

Surviving

I understand your frustration
With my lack of motivation
And my repetitive procrastination
But you need to realize
I'm only doing what I need to
To survive
Music and books
Keep me alive
Therefore
if you wish to see me
Tomorrow morn
Please leave me be

Sorry about the ****** rhyming, it was partially accidental. Also I'm tired and idk...

Secret to the Heavens

Secret to the Heavens

~Christi Michaels~ January 2015~

Stepping into Moonlight
Eyes all a Wonder
Casting My Gaze up
Through Soft Boughs of Pine
Ethereal Brilliance, I do Ponder

Evening Darkness
Cloaks My Presence
I am a Secret to the Heavens
Only Fate knows I am Here
My Intentions Honest,
Transparent...Clear

Senses Heightened
this Sumptuous Night
Steadfast upon My Land
am Free to Roam at will
Toes immersed in Loamy Sand

Such Beauty fills my Senses
This Starry Night
Finding Solace Here
Under Magnificent Endless Twilight

Raising My Arms Up... I Surrender
Immersed into Moon's Night
My Heart all a Wonder
Lifting My Gaze
Through Soft Boughs of Pine
Ethereal Brilliance, I do Ponder
