Thanks to Colleen and Yvette for an inspiring prompt this week. Tread with Trepidation is the theme this week for writing syllabic poetry (any form).
My new poetry book is dedicated to such blogger buddies for inspiring me to learn and write syllabic poetry. If you like poetry, please click on the link to look inside
Each morning When eastern rim glows pink, The queen of flowers spreads her soft hands, Allures her admirers with her fragrance to kiss her delicate visage.
She waltzes for a second To gather the beams of morning sun, To shake off the the silence of spring dewdrops, To intoxicate bees and butterflies, And be the pride of Mother Nature.
Alone she enjoys the moment With tranquil delight in her eyes, Lilting with life She breathes a message of giving, Giving all that she can offer.
Riding on the wings of spring She savors the bumblebee’s buzz Flaunts her seasonal charm Ephemeral beauty that fades fast Like a melting candle.
The door that locked me in, The door that became my canvas, Ignited my creativity, Stirred my numb mind, I’m glad I sat behind this door.
The door that barred my way, The door that nurtured my mirages, Peeping outside was a sin. It taught me to look within. I’m glad I lived within.
The door that kept beckoning, The door that argued assertively, Chasing a false future is futile. Clinging to past imperfections, pallid. I’m glad it taught me!
The door that I shunned willingly, The door that I kept closed To emerge saner, subtle minded. Positive vibes carried me far. I’m glad it nurtured me!
The door that sparked curiosity, The door that I broke open, Delusions died with the door. Realism was stark and stormy. I’m glad I could break free!
Away from dark corridors of the mind, Abandoning all fears behind that door. I move into the realms of my choice, Into the world of love and peace. I look forward to the new world!
