DAY 26. A "Something I Would Collect Poem"
~
DAY 25. Opposite Poem
(opposite of )
Gathering our minds

DAY 24. The Truth About
Dreams and Wishes
If I could collect
dreams and wishes
I’d keep them in a
horizonless aviary where they
Could fly free and
safe from the winds
Of ever
realized limitation’s lament
(opposite of )
Gathering our minds
Letting go of possessions
Hurricane Sandy
Loosening our grip they
Hold tight to mouse pads
And faded pictures - all sorts
Of stuff – clutched in clenched fists
Refusing to move – determined to hold
Back the encroaching tide
As waters rush inexorably forward
The truth about truth
Unfolding orgami
Dependent on hands
DAY 23. A Deep Poem
The Pebble
In the tumbled clink
Of a pebble
Dropped
Down an empty well
I hear
Love
Echo
~
DAY 22. Paradise Poem
Bird of Paradise
In crowning orange
topiary
Craning as though
readying for flight
It blooms
~
DAY 21. 5 Song Poem
Freedom
Imagine
that you are
closer
to fine
“Hey, Soul Sister”
kick that prince of darkness
to the curb
and secure yourself
(Imagine, Closer To Fine, Hey/Soul Sister, Prince of Darkness, Secure Yourself).

Oohh .. so many goodies here! My favorite is, "The Pebble." I can see the pebble drop and bounce back up in your line format. I love how you have given such a visual with so few words, too. Love it!
ReplyDeletePerfect, Pearl; you're gathering poetic stones even after evacuating for a major hurricane! Given those conditions, the challenge would have been over for me. These are wonderful!
