These poems are three I choose at random early in the a.m. hours. One was written in 1994, one in 2007 and one just last month. Why these three are together, is not mine to say, I simply post them here for you to read. Blessings
>> I have a cry within that screams and streams>> muffled by the numbness of my mind.>>>> At night it comes to me>> In the silence of the house when I am all alone>>>> Beginning as a whisper, reflected in the memories of> the day>> It's insistent voice is heard.>>>> There's something wrong, something's wrong.>>>> Another being is trying to get my attention>> to show it's face,>> to breathe a breath>>>> The things we see are never what we think>> What we think is never what we see>>> --
LIKE A WOMAN
YOU CANNOT RUSH A SUNRISE
. . . LIKE A WOMAN
SHE CAN'T BE RUSHED
IT TAKES TIME TO TURN THE NIGHT TO DAY
A CEREMONY
A SUBTLE TRANSFORMATION
SOMETIMES TEASING, SQUEEZING OUT EACH MOMENT
BARELY PERCEPTABLE
UNTIL A BREEZE AWAKENS SENSES AND THE LIGHT APPEARS
.. . .LIKE A WOMAN
WARM AND GLOWING
FLUSHED WITH COLOR
ANTICIPATORY
FLIRTING
SPREADING OUT
AN EVER CHANGING CENTER
GLOWING HOT AND STRONG
REACHING
WANTING
DANCING
LIGHTENING
AWAKENING
GIVING SIMPLE SIGNALS
I AM HERE
AWAKE
ARISE
A NEW MOMENT HAS ARRIVED
LIKE A WOMAN WITH HER LOVER
SPREADING MORE
KNOWING EVERY NOOK AND CRANNY OF THE SKY
DISPELLING DARKNESS
TURNING MAGIC INTO LIGHT
THEN LIKE AN ORGASM
THE SUN APPEARS
AS PROMISED . . .
AS HOPED FOR . . .
COMPLETE
BEGINS ANOTHER DAY
Commitment
We are caught on the edge of a swirl
Things rush by us
Never to land and always moving
We are pushed to stay where we are
or to relax and fall into a stupor
Commitment means letting go of all that and trusting!
I have a commitment where once there was a void
I built it with broken dreams,
and broken promises
and wishful thinking
and many other things.
One by one as my commitment grew,
the broken things fell by the wayside
and now, they no longer exist
But Commitment Does!
TRUST!!
