A Morning Poem. Building Wings

Oh @mandamichelle I am undone!  Thank you SO much!!  #rebirth #buildingwings

Every morning 
the world wakes up
all around me
and I watch. 

I sip my coffee
warm in my hands
and listen as the birds sing
their morning songs.

I too have a morning song,
a wild woman 
somewhere deep within me
that sings at the dawn of a new day.

She sings of 
new adventures
new discoveries
and building wings.

Broken Compasses

Rocks and Light.

Rocks and Light breed poetry in my bones.
Like a lovers gaze,
They hold secret messages

silent. whispers.

Chapters full of adventures, long roads traveled and yet to travel.
Water and blood like a horror
with deaths and rebirths

and. broken. compasses.

They do not sit alone.
These Rocks.
This light.

Huddled together and close to other elements
they embrace with
light kissing treetops

a. sacred. tribe.

I stare.  I soak it all up.
I ask
many questions.

and. they. answer



(Enjoying other poets, I'm linking up here today).

Restless Artist

"Soft you day, be velvet soft" Maya Angelou

Words.  Grip me.  Scream behind bars for freedom.

Even if only through rotary listing.  One by one.

Light bathing.  Trees swaying.  A restless artist.

This.  

Eyes opened to the soul.  Soul of a poet.
