Poetry, I Love!

My heart stirs,
with every word.

It shapes the mind,
and softens the heart.

Like the morning,
it is the light of day.

It wakes the soul,
and breathes true.

Like the night,
it is the shining stars.

It is all I have –
poetry, I love!

 

A Future Glance

The past reflects

a future glance,

a figment familiar

but strange,

and the eyes

that once loved you,

change shape –

and the refuge found,

dilutes –

fades away

with each passing reflection.
