I opened up
And shared with you
My secrets fell
Upon the floor
But now it’s past
And we are through
I’ll sweep them up
Till there are no more
Category poetry
Waiting No More
I spent hours, minutes, days and years
Waiting for a touch of kindness
Love from you
My waiting is over
The need is gone
Time before me
Is mine to fill
Introverted
Living in my thoughts all day
Sleeping in my dreams at night
Cocooned in a world of self
Struggling to break free
Perhaps there is something
Wrong with me
But I just want to be
Alone at liberty
Poems and Petals
Poems and petals
Spread their fragrance all around –
Power in their peace
I’ve changed my blog from Passion Through Poetry to Poems and Petals. Because poetry. And petals.
I Remember
Memories filter back into my mind
Those sweet caresses stolen over time
Your hands exploring every subtle curve –
For brief moments we melted into one.
You have slipped away, but I still can
Remember.
Breathing
I could feel her breathing next to me
A gentle rhythmic soft hum
Curled in my arms I held her hand
A body filled with life
And I felt glad
Kaleidoscope
Looking to the future
And it’s secrets untold
Fills me with a fear
And anguish of old
Can I look past the pain
To see something new
Can I forget my regrets
Bidding them all adieu?
My heart fills with love
With sweetness and hope
Miracles start to shine –
My celestial kaleidoscope
The Light
When all around is dark
And all you know is night
Feel the hope within
And move towards the light
When sadness overwhelms
And you have lost your sight
A few gentle steps
Moving towards the light
When wounds begin to heal
We sense that near delight
Stirs our waking heart
Embracing inner light
When happiness is found
And all is calm and bright
Ever keep on reaching
Onwards towards the light
My very first poem – 13 October 2013
3 Years Today!
3 years
Of blogging
Of writing
Of sharing
Of learning
Of reading
Of friendship
Of love
Yay!
3 years
Today!
Falling Tears
Angry clouds loom
Casting shadows –
The steps I take
Are darkened by the
Absence of sun
No light shining
Today
As the tears fall
I wipe them away
Poems and Petals
