I don't really want to just ramble; but I seriously don't have much of anything else to do. I have nothing to do. Seriously. I'm timing how long it takes to write by listening to a a playlist of Taylor Swift songs. I'd much rather be at the Ikea. I'm supposed to be getting a bedframe from there.
The way ashes fall
After a fire
Voices ring out in the night,
lost, confused
Hope is not gone.
The way tears stream
Down your face
Crowds of faceless people,
bitter, angry
Hope is not gone.
The way waves lap
At a shipwreck
Sailors row lifeboats,
lifeless, dull
Hope is not gone.
The way moonlight shines
On broken glass
A figure stands in the window,
grief, loss
Hope is not gone.
grief, loss
Hope is not gone.
The way you stand
Head held high
Insults lost on you,
hope, warmth
Once lost,
but found,
You are the hope.
hope, warmth
Once lost,
but found,
You are the hope.
I'm not sure how good a poem that is; but I think it's fairly okay. I'm going to try and post once a week. So next Friday, or Saturday, I'll post again.

Beautiful poem. I wish I could write as well as that. As soon as you finish your first book, I'll be first in line to buy it. You have an amazing writing style.
ReplyDeleteWow, I absolutely love that poem, especially the last stanza. You have a great writing style. I really enjoyed reading it, it has kind of mysterious tone to me. I'm not sure if that's what you were aiming for, but that's kind of what I think of.
ReplyDeleteHow could we make fun of Gris-Gris? That's a neat photo, too, I love the colours of the grass and the scarf, and the textures are wonderful! Mia is beautiful up at the top, too.
