Sharing a poem I wrote a few months ago. If you’re feeling the grips of fear, and who isn’t currently, then I think you’ll enjoy this.
Unafraid of the darkness Eagles perch in wait Watching our movements If we dare Swooping in delight They carry us afar Up, up to Aquarius night star We float upon Clouds like jelly Aspic on our tongues From melted lies we left behind Our flight to the horizon On breadth of Eagle’s wings Lifts our spirits To unimaginable height In the inky sky Older now We learn To soar not crawl Unafraid of the darkness All fear subsides As we fly above obstacles That no longer block our lives -Lisa Thomson Wells
I wrote this little poem as a challenge: Choose one element and write about it. I chose AIR and VERSE.
What element attracts you? Water, fire, earth or air? I tend toward water but Air is my birth sign…so I chose her.
Air is breath of life, our souls. It is the power harnessed to create energy. It is also the ‘mother of thought’ and corresponds to communication and the colors yellow and white.
It’s time for Colleen’s photo prompt poetry challenge. I actually got to choose the photo for this challenge. I’m excited to see what everyone has written.
I’m joining in Sue Vincent’s #writephoto challenge today. It’s all about dreams…
Always in bloom
Her dreams took her
To faraway places
She hadn’t been before
A path that beckoned
Colors to entice her through
Darkest of days
Purple and green
And greys in between
Her dream as vivid as the
Lilac in late spring

I’m sharing a poem with you today. I wonder, can you relate? As much of my life lessons have taught me about valuing material goods over love and health, I don’t believe I’ve expressed it as well as with this verse.
Whoever “she” is has taught me, too.
