winter burn
bright mornings like
this
beautiful blue, sunlit skies
deceive
notice how the birds keep
silent vigil on tree limbs amidst frigid air, breathless

mirror, mirror
tell me something
real
give me a reason
lavish
me with your best words
infused with truth…i promise, I can take it

two worlds
there is
darkness there,
faded forests
silent fields…
here, a little
ever green is
where unfading
flowers hum

I have missed Manic Monday’s Three-Way challenges and finding poetry amidst the lyrics of the featured songs. So I am challenging myself to “find” poetry in some of the greatest poems of all time. You can see a list of them HERE at the Best Poems Encyclopedia. Starting us off is this gem by Emily Dickinson called, “There is Another Sky”. (My found poetry, aka blackout poem, is shown below by the bold text.)
There is another sky,
Ever serene and fair,
And there is another sunshine,
Though it be darkness there;
Never mind faded forests, Austin,
Never mind silent fields –
Here is a little forest,
Whose leaf is ever green;
Here is a brighter garden,
Where not a frost has been;
In its unfading flowers
I hear the bright bee hum:
rithee, my brother,
Into my garden come!
promises
they are broken
promises
lost is the dream
obliterated
by greedy, power hungry fools
who have forgotten that we are in this together

a grand legacy
they call me
grandma
mother of their mother
familial
connection, wisdom in the flesh,
never too busy, to lay on the floor coloring
