waste not want
not to store excess
but plenty
it was such a waste
four long years of higher ed
just to flip burgers
the cruelest fate
one’s body wasting away
with one’s mind intact
it’s a waste of time
to try changing someone’s mind
who thinks with their heart
a life of worry
wasted on cheap wine and painkillers
death not survival

dawn is truth’s ally
its light burns fog into mist
exposing secrets

how fragile life is
a hiccup in time
how fragile life is
touched by the divine
miraculously
a hiccup in time
yet vast as the sea
a breath, a soft sigh
miraculously
though all things must die
to be born again
a breath, a soft sigh
beginning to end
interconnected
to be born again
sweetly perfected
how fragile life is
interconnected
how fragile life is

(A Terzanelle Poem)
Still reeling from the chaotic beginning of my week. Adding a second magnetic poem to make up for my poetry form for yesterday…
…almost back on track…knock on laminate. 😉
you know…
it would be lovely
to have a do-over
this week…
like the blossoms
in spring!

(Magnetic Poetry – Nature Kit)
I was going to try to explain my tardiness…but, what can I say? It was your typical Monday…CRAZY day! 🙂
this was one of those
dark coffee mornings,
cloudy, wild, work days
but I always smile as if…
you get the picture…
but I sail along only by
remembering to breathe
and lingering over
my hot cup o’ magic.
