Tag: 8 line poetry

December 19, 2020December 20, 2020

one and one make

love may come to bother   and to wallow in the wind   yet when one persuades another   time travels to rescind   is this a new formation   of life with nothing in it   or a commotion meant to stray if one lets one within it

Notes X

Why do we accept at base What is shown to us in lies Is it because whilst on the screen It’s right before our eyes Are we so shallow not to ask If what we see is true Would we prefer to leave slow thought To someone more like ‘you’

Refinement

A whistle blows – silence grows Alerted to a warning Like iridescence in the sky One lustrous summer morning   Darting from the here and now The future’s in alignment To my cloud – I float – I fly A life’s divine refinement

Fear

And what’s to be said When dastardly Hell is done And the road once walked Has since been run   From the sea to the valley Oh may it be clear That the hike to the mountaintop Will e’er shed one’s fear

A scene

 Time raced past midday to afternoon light and saw a glint in the sun on the field in the farm   Smile dropped in – Joy came  to stay and the dog said  will anyone throw a ball  and come play

on one knee

On one knee he looks into her eyes a wan smile sleeping there and seeping through   His pallid face a picture of distraught despair his life a salty sense of breathless air
