These are three of my poems, from a period of my life when I strived to achieve my dreams. Giving up and observing instead of living life was not an option. The first one was written in 2004. It was a day that all my plans had been changed because of the arrival of snow
Snow falling - erasing my day
And forming a new destination Sliding down the slick sidewalks. The house becomes the route of my entertainment- too busy for thought
To regret or feel my prison- knowing that tomorrow my routine will change
But wishing to remain in my haven- of activity in my house
I keep hoping and watching
For more snow
This was written about a drive I took with a friend. We both had been having a rough week, so a moment of spiritually bonding made me feel like we were being watched. It was written more recently in 2019
Earth Angel
Today I was an angel- A angel in disguise
I could tell I made you happy I could see it in your eyes
And today you were an angel I couldn't help but smile
I sat and felt no pressure At least for a little while
This poem feels like it was written years ago, although 2004 is a long time ago. I have to admit I miss the feeling that I have written about in the poem below.
Feelings versus Reality
I feel - like an energetic beauty, my mood soars, in the daze of my grasp we both sleep
I feel Like a slim fit young lady Till the morning, visit reminds me - reminds me what I think is not what you see.
You rub my arms - kiss me fondly despite the vision
but the truthteller - the deliverer of my shocked awakening
is
My morning visit
My quick glance
Into
My mirror
My confidence slightly waning
Thank you for reading three of my poems, Feel free to read more of my writing. Thanks again
