Sunday’s Week in ReVerse – 4 March 2018

Sometimes I have no words. Today is one of those days when the sum total of the past week says it all and all I can say…all that needs to be said is…

“This…”

Have a lovely week! ❤️

Sunday’s Week in ReVerse – 4 March 2018

it is too soon for spring
beating ever faintly in syncopation with the rain
listen to the wind
we never woulda guessed…
winter’s snap, an early spring denies
how do you do it, straight-faced,
wisdom’s an uncommon thing
daring us to believe
rain-sopped, soggy grey
out of this World
clouds race on tempest streams
you know, we should talk
some say ‘twas the egg
even saccharine infused
dreams give way to longing
eden must have been beautiful
life goes on
to those who linger
believe…but remember

A 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 ReVerse features the words of one writer, providing a glimpse into their thoughts over time. I use it as a review of the previous week.


Florette #4

all this fuss over tweets
makes us puppets who bleat

Saturday’s with the Muse

keep the faith
hope for peace
believe…but remember
god does her best
work with a little help
from you

healing never comes
to those who linger
on things that
could have been

death is but a
passage to the
sweet by and by
a tiny sleep, but
life goes on
eternally

eden must have
been beautiful to
behold, but I do believe
that I can feel its sweet
spirit every spring
