Asking for a friend

Poetry,

Hi All!

I’ve been writing for a while now, and received a request recently to read my poetry as well. As someone who simply writes poetry I was slightly surprised by the request.  I ended up creating a survey on my Twitter account asking the same thing.

Do any of you read and record your poetry?  Is this a thing that your readers ( or others ) enjoy? I would be interested in hearing either way.

Thank you so much for all your fabulous feedback and comments!

In the End

Poetry, Relationships, , , , ,

In the End

In the end
No more disputes
Pettiness ignored
Arguments mute
In the end
Only respect
Lived in peace
Ended the suit
In the end
Money didn’t matter
Silence ignored
On the same route
In the end
Jealousy disregarded
History smudged
No reboot
In the end
One died with less
The other more
Lives wasted in silence
Though no one remembered
All or whatever for

Supine

Poetry, ,

Supine

I walked down a new street
Laying supine, wishing for life
Warm cup unfrosted thoughts
Steaming my views
Transforming hulks of loose brick
Sagging glass into babes of possibility
Somewhere a baby squeals
As a mother strolls past the green tufts
Growing through the sidewalk.

Passed the Past

Relationships,

Passed the Past

She littered her life with the past
Past relationships
Past promises
Past boyfriends who
gave her a pass.
Past times when she hadn’t a care
Past lives
Past primes
Staring in this mirror
Her life seemingly
Passed her by
She smiled
Applied the red
Forgot the past
And started another day
