Poetry Inspiration Board: Twilight

There is a secret space

between heaven and earth,

Between the living and the dead

Where the nameless 

wander back to 

burial beds.

Tread lightly 

It is a sacred time.

Look up and you will see 

the changing of heavenly guards.

They paint the sky path bright

and welcome every 

star to shine.

Club of The Living Dead

This one goes way back, an ode to my college days.  Clubbing served it's mindless purpose in my life for a space of a year.  At the end of my little journey I realized just how mindless it was.  

FUN yes, but mindless.  

"What would aliens be thinking if they saw us right now?"  

That was the kind of crap that would run through my head, so naturally, I was difficult to hit on.  

That didn't stop me from dancing alone.  HaHaHa!

Endless...

You can write something into existence.

You can write through generations of time.

But you can never write something into extinction. 

Written words will only give birth to more words and thought.

Endless...

Not one.

The Price

Inspired by love.  

     If you are not willing to give all of your effort, you are not loving properly.  Everyone deserves some level of love.  It is what makes us human.  We all entered the world naked, fragile, and in need of love and care.  Holding back love is not in our nature.  Yes sometimes we love and are hurt in return.  How can we possibly trust someone with this precious gift again?  Love of self is the key.  When you have a strong sense of self, you will no longer need to seek love in others.  You will look for others to share in your abundance.

Unforgettable

Inspired by the loss of a loved one who's life was celebrated even in death.
