Me - Hello Poetry

A bird in the night *****
its golden-blue wings
just do disturb your
ongoing thoughts of doom

Mercy

You are not afraid of
a sharp blade
any longer
for you trust the purity
of your intentions
and the heart
that has never failed you

" [...] My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play in it, for good or evil, before this is over. The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many.'"
- Gandalf's words, J. R. R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

What is it that lies
at the core of humanity

Hope

In the middle of the
grey path
amidst all the
dust and rubble and
noise there lies
a pink almond blossom
unharmed
because it followed you
and it always
does so
marking
the way

Ballet

You watch
in silent amazement from
where you stand
in the middle
as time completely
rearranges itself
before your very eyes

Vision of Daughter

Last night in bed
I imagined your face
In front of
a setting sun

Surrounded by
The amber sky
Your smile was radiant

I tried separating
The pain in my heart
From the gratitude I feel
for witnessing your existence

Prompt

The wind blows the grains of dry sand
away from the paper and
a question emerges
reading
Who are you
in clear letters
You remember
and hear
the earnest tone of this phrase
and no hint of your own
uncertainty
is mirrored
in this question

A reckless kid asks for a soothing counterpart...

The Cave of Water and Light

A breath-taking pattern on the lime stone ceiling
of flittering light square shapes
rounded
vibrating as the clear pool of water does underneath
you stand in awe -
meanwhile the words are still growing
in your heart and you know
you wait a little longer
