thoughts meandering into nothing
feelings seem overwhelming
I sit and go within to quiet the storm
everything simply is
all I have to do is breathe
and be

Poem: flow of words
words flow out of me like
raindrops pounding on a tin roof
no one to read my beautiful words
But it don’t matter, cause I write to write
I don’t need applause or fame
words pound on me
until they explode in my brain
down to my finger tips
A Poem A Day Challenge: Day 6
calm before the storm
a heart at peace
even now
Poem A Day Challenge: Day 5
the sirens call beckons me
to lull me back to sleep
Poem A Day Challenge: Day 4
waking up in the morning
waking up to life
letting my heart awaken to
all that is
extra poem of the day: the gift of today
i awaken to life
one breath at a time
awaken to what is
present to the gift of today
Poem A Day Challenge: Day 3
late at night
my thoughts run like wild beasts
they come and go as they please
without a thought for my well being
the only thing that quiets my wild thoughts
are writing them down like a mad man
beating on my computer keys,
like Kerouac pounding away at his type writer
i am no legend like kerouac,
but i too have insomnia from time to time
expect mine aren’t drug induced
a clear mind, a bit sleepy, but clean
all i need is poetry to get me high on life

grace
i don’t always feel like i am in a state of gift.
sometimes life seemed so fucked up,
i want to throw my hands up.
But other days, it feels like a gift to be alive,
and to be able to face challenges with some sort of ease.
may we all find peace, and freedom from suffering.

i ache for love
but it begins with me
