beautiful monarchs
leave your gold chrysalises
days of wine and blooms
tyranny be damned
bring us days of blissful peace
and kings wearing clothes

Happy Sunday. Wow! Normally I would be trying to make sense of the lines that I lifted from the past week’s posts. But today, as I sit outside in the bitter nip of winter, the birds are trilling as if it is spring…like mercury colliding…moments of unexpected clarity…consume me…
Shi Sai Sunday’s Week in ReVerse – 5 March 2017
Simplicity, just being it, is best
Everything happens for a reason,
the past best left to ashes
but I always smile as if…
to have a do-over
Touched by the divine
its light burns fog into mist
A life of worry
It’s a waste of time
The cruelest fate
It is such a waste
But plenty
had to see if the rumors were true
to slip anonymously through the crowds
feel their presence ever so near
as a great flash of light consumed them
beware of the glitch
I see your heart
the loveliest flowers
Color me

A shi sai or ReVerse poem is a summary poem with a single line lifted from each entry of a collection of work over a particular timeframe and re-penned in chronological order as a new poem. Unlike a collaborative poem, the shi sai features the words of one writer,providing a glimpse into their thoughts over time. I use it as a review of the previous week. 😊
color me
ocean greens and
icy glass blues,
brilliant steels,
dazzling champagnes
and velvety caramels
or fiery blush reds,
smoky marbles
and cloudless coffees…
the poetry, the magic is
in letting them bleed

weeds
the loveliest flowers
bloom to life when
earth is cold and wet
and gently greening…
spring is but a
breath away
