Hello Daisies
Poems
May 2019
Blank slate
Imagine for a moment
That you're barefoot
Freshly awakened
And in a box
Of nothing
A blank slate
As you look back
You see darkness
Overbearing depth
Is that where you were kept?
Now look forward
Take your first step
You will see it's blank
This is your chance
Take your barefeet and dance
Splash new color
Maybe joy maybe blue
You can make so many hues
You can go slow as you like
Or fast on a bike
It's your time now
Sometimes the dark may follow
Push it back under a cage
Lock it tight
Use your might
You escaped the dark
Show your path some spark
Your colors may not match
Some of the slate
May stay blank
That's ok
Do it your way
Honey, you're here to stay
You'll never go back
So stop looking
No need to attack
Maybe you'll find
Red shoes very divine
Maybe you click them together
And find home in new weather
You'll find your "together"
And be able to rest in forever
