Poems
Mar 2012
Departing from the Beginning
A love like the rain
A drought from the desert sun
So dry and empty
Thunderclouds rolling by
A moment to linger, they strike
Only ash remains
Vulnerable dust
Swept by shame across the lands
Of uncertainty
The sun setting west
Fear that light I will not touch
A heart still guarded
I long as I lie
Beneath a vast stretch of stars
Echoing my dreams
Here my mind is free
To be taken by the wind
No where; anywhere
Reason resonates
Do you believe peace is real?
No answer is known
Reminiscing fades
Time is cruel, moments too short
Cherish what is now
Though spirit longing
To traverse gates of new life
Nature will reveal
Secrets kept by death
Haunted beauties that lie beyond
imagination
Broadened, brighter lens
To behold a world greener
As grass always seems
Searching for a home
Yet that's from where I depart
Weary head and heart
An empty forest
Where stood a canvas, white, blank
The story begins.
