Until Now

Until Now The muse left me. I felt her go. I wanted to write, yes and Suddenly, no. She was there - Word fountains flew into the air Then rained down Silence. Until now. By LJ. Copyright 2016

Seaweed

Seaweed The current of feeling held me With mocking, murky hands I thought the sky was water, I thought the earth was sand. I sank with every heartbeat, Scattered bubbles of despair That bobbed along my vision Distorting any glare Though the sun shone - I couldn't see  That curled around my heart Were but weeds of make believe A water-work of art.

There's a Tiger on my Bed

There's a Tiger on my Bed There's a tiger on my bed A predator, aware Of feelings - She kills what's lonely. There's a tiger on my bed Danger in her stare - She hunts  The ghosts that haunt me. There's a tiger on my bed - Even in sleep prepared To keep  My human company. By LJ, Copyright 2016

Adult

Adult The best thing about Being an adult Is chocolate for breakfast Because you can. by LJ, Copyright 2016

Waves

Waves I watched the wind ride through the grass That turned dark green as air pushed past In waves To greet me. There is no water, is no sea But on the earth, beneath my feet The waves Still reached me. By LJ, Copyright 2016

Mindfulness

Mindfulness Close your eyes Deep breath in Deep breath out Shoulders down. What do you hear? No Sound. Close your eyes Deep breath in Deep breath out Shoulders down. Can you hear the  Clock Sound? Tick. Tock. The sound is there but you Were Not. By LJ, Copyright 2016

Huntress

Huntress She's hunting for perfection. Her claws scour the clearing. She preys on rocks that mock enough, The layered landscape fearing. She's poised, and posed, as queen. Her paws perfectly hiding The dirt that dared to cross her lair, To play with in her timing.  She's alert, always aware, Her senses ever feeling. She never sleeps this huntress feeds On imperfection's being. By LJ. Copyright 2016

Night lights

Night lights I sit within a diamond  Constellation of house stars; Made of fairy lights and candles And gold glitter in glass jars - A man-made galaxy Uniting night and sky outside With those who feel the safest Dreaming their ideas, inside. By LJ. Copyright 2016
