Somewhere Somehow I can’t identify when it changed. I saw things differently, my eyes no longer covered by an opaque way of thinking. Sunshine brightened this world with unimagined colors, butterflies broke free, songbirds warbled lovely tunes. Amidst emerging beauty words became every day’s lifeblood; I found my voice. All around me, there was change, yet everything remained the same. For it was me that changed. Reborn, rewired. My heart drummed a brand new beat. Driven by transformation, I wrote. I write. Adding a dash of color. Singing harmony to surrounding melodies. I am changing. I am writing. I am a poet.

Changed and Changing
Somewhere Somehow I can’t identify when it changed. I saw things differently, my eyes no longer covered by an opaque way of thinking. Sunshine brightened this world with unimagined colors, butterflies broke free, songbirds warbled lovely tunes. Amidst emerging beauty words became every day’s lifeblood; I found my voice. All around me, there was change, yet everything remained the same. For it was me that changed. Reborn, rewired. My heart drummed a brand new beat. Driven by transformation, I wrote. I write. Adding a dash of color. Singing harmony to surrounding melodies. I am changing. I am writing. I am a poet.
This is my first poem for OctPoWriMo. The word prompts are: chrysalis, butterfly, transformation.
