kindled kindling
smoke and flame

lungs full of air
blowing through lips
A Poet 3d
Like an immense sunflower petal,
dawn's soft light unfolds,
there is no sound,
no traffic,
there is only light,
that escapes those eyes, I came to love,
gone as fast as it bloomed.
Two souls apart from all the crowd,
in love and hate, both fierce and proud.
Through beautyโ€™s light and sorrowโ€™s rain,
we cling through joy, we cling through pain.

For in thine eyes, my truth I know,
and neither heart will let it go.
Thine eyes hold truths no stars could hide,
a mirror deep where my heart abides.

No chain of earth, no hand of time,
could break the bond that makes thee mine.
We keep this fire, this hallowed wholeโ€”
and drink forever from each otherโ€™s soul.

This is a little different for me, because when I write poetry, I typically do not rhyme... This time I did, and I like it ๐Ÿ’•

Yes, yes
Yes, I know
There comes a time
when we all must go
I know, I know
Itโ€™s the way of things
It has toppled tyrants
and buried kings
So, we must be thankful
for time spent
in our broken bodies,
souls woefully bent
to the needful side of suffering
I know this isnโ€™t funny and yet I am laughing

the mind can continue to sail
as long as there is a breath
in and out of the lungs

Gnats can elicit gyrations
-manic dancing
and obscene curses
