Drifting paper thin
scream no one to hear
spark the night fire
baby burst, don’t feel
replace the future hurricane
rainbow doors are closed
leave ’em brighter through the fire

Final Found Poetry February. Wow I can’t believe it’s the last day of February already. This last piece is an example of “cut out” poetry. I have a real love of words, different fonts, colors and meanings. So whenever I come across a word in a magazine or an ad or whatever, I cut it out. Then I put them together to form tiny little poems. This one is on a coloring page I did for Escapists Coloring Challenge. Mindful coloring is a lovely, serene activity and frankly, I need to do more of it. Check out the challenge and grab some crayons and join us.

For 27th Found Poetry February, another piece that I “found.” I suppose technically this is “public” poetry rather than “found” poetry but hey, it’s my challenge to myself so. Here it is, perfect just the way I found it. Continue reading “What was paradise?”
Amazing won’t be easy
Easy won’t be amazing
Tribes, black and white
the world is broken
so believe in yourself
imagine love when you can
for only in the darkness
can you see the stars Continue reading “Amazing isn’t Easy”
The Fact of Use
Work, find position
listen to the fact of use
my ability low down
I do not believe

Soft blushing angel and
sad broken breath
childlike universe did die
but the wild green fool
is born as naked magic

I’ve always said that there is poetry to be found everywhere. You just have to look for it, in your inbox, on the refrigerator, or sometimes hanging from the underside of a dock. And sometimes, it’s perfect just the way it is. So for the 22nd Found Poetry February, this beauty.
Blue rain from a clear sky.
Our world a cube of sunlight –
but to the South
the violet admonition
of thunder.

Concrete Design
The aged white settler
skin dyed rough brown
surviving on earliest farmland
produced his great masterpiece
with ancestral fascination
but today concrete design
built occupation’s cold future
