Nothing

I’ve got nothing to write about today
Nothing to moan about, not a word to say.
Nope, I am empty, my brain is full of mush
I could try and write some words, but why such a big push?
Hmmm, something about an election, people are now winning
But still we maim, destroy, and plunder, we just keep on sinning.
So, nope, I am going to put in very little effort today
To write anything good, to have anything to say.
Cause I got nothing, my thoughts are all wonky
Too easily distracted, hey look, a miniature donkey.
Why do so many poems rhyme and have rhythm anyway?
It’s such a distraction from making serious headway.
And this right here, it looks like it rhymes
That’s some Dr. Suess BS in these political times.
I’ll put away the pad, the pencil, the pen
There’s always tomorrow, I can write more then.

Five Seasonal Haikus For You: Fall

#1
A brand new cold day
Sun is slow on it’s rise up
Searching for warmth now

#2
Bare trees and brown leaves
Tossed about by the cold wind
Winter on the way

#3
Pumpkin spice oh ugh
A cliche of twisted nature
Mother nature cries

#4
Tears run down her face
Thoughts of other days like this
Why the suffering?

#5
Black crow caws again
Another crow returns caw
What do they know now?

D.I.Y Poem: Chose your emerging consciousness option

The morning/ evening was {beautiful}, {extraordinary}, {stunning}, {slow moving}, {serene}

A {glorious}, {red-orange}, {reluctant},{silver}, {golden}, sun/ moon arose/descended

{slowly}, {quickly}, {quietly},{anonymously} over/ under the horizon.

~

I {glanced}, {gazed}, {observed}, {witnessed}, {discovered} myself for just a moment

Ah, my own reflection from the {window pane}, {pond water}, {rear-view mirror}

And I don’t look so different from/ like the {orb}, {planet}, {celestial being} {planetary landmark}.

~

Now, I recognize our {harmony}, {oneness}, {unity}, {fragility}, {shared consciousness}

I am {hear now} {at peace} {content}, knowing this emerging reality

I am beyond being {humbled}, {supported}, (subdued} by this concept.

~

I am {one}, {all}, {love}, {light}

I am {awake}, {alive}, {free}

My heart is {full}, {light}, (emancipated}.

Farewell for now

I look at you

Laying there on the worn green couch

And I am filled with contempt

For you and you alone

~

You are worn and stained

Old and shabby

Though you have only been through 2 seasons

You may be useless in the near future

~

So pretty and purple

Not that long ago

And now you weigh me down heavily

You are simply too much

~

Too much for the sunshine emerging

The green returning

The birds soon chirping

Changing of the seasons

~

You get to go away now

Go back to the attic

Folded into a pile

Stinking of moth balls

~

Perhaps you will be replaced

next year maybe

But for now you can rest

folding in on yourself

~

Farewell my winter friend

Purple, stained, and warm

Farewell for now

Purple down coat
