#conundrum poems on Hello Poetry

Ylzm Aug 2019

Acquainted with the minutest details
Asking the deep but obscurest questions
Walking paradox each waking moment
Conundrums within constantly astir

Then I know we walk same mysterious ways
Hidden enigmas part if seas open
Waters from dead rocks when all hope is lost
Yet we walk, the light irresistible

Apart in time and space irrelevant
For the soul's immortal and eternal
Speaks the same words in the same awe and light
In language beyond words, speech without sound

The conundrum

"What's it all about?"
leaves in the wind wonder aloud;
fall mute, contemplate!

Hapless

It's funny how the continuum
has become rule of thumb,
when the answer is right
in front of the nose
Cunning to call it a ‘conundrum’
and just move on numb…
The master is white,
in front of the foe…

Invocation Jan 2019

I'm too tired to talk to anybody but you

And you're too tired to talk to me

I wish I had more to say to a faceless community but you're asleep next to me and I don't dare wake you. You work in the morning. It IS the morning. You've been busting *** while I sit happily on mine. How can I wake you to share these thoughts you need to hear? Sleep is my favourite comfort zone. I shan't take it away from you. Sleep blissfully my love.

Dragonfly conundrum

A dragonfly glides-
Now, a sea of glittery wings;
Who has seen their nest?

Silence

I love silence.

It is a conundrum of esoterica.

It's name invokes sound,

But when silence exists,

It is louder than any other sound.

They say to talk about problems,

But.

They also say silence speaks volumes.

And I can't help but agree.

Sitting in my room, waiting for my friend so we can watch anime.

Proverbial Conundrum

.
I realise these are British proverbs, so some poets
may not have heard them before,
However, they do contradict each other.
