Day Seven of NaPoWriMo. The prompt:
Today, we’d like to challenge you to write a poem of gifts and joy. What would you give yourself, if you could have anything? What would you give someone else?
What better gift than nature?
Spring’s blanket of blooms
spreading of it’s own accord
Gaia arises
Mankind v. Gaia
without blame or forgiveness
justice will be served
Shed no tears; wear them.
Shed not your humanity.
Wear love on your sleeve.
monochrome music
nuance plays upon nuance
melodies in gray
Cee’s Black and White Photo Challenge: Music
threading through the clouds
jets rip the sky asunder
contrails hide the tears
winter solstice wish:
may lessons learned in years past
guide the year to come
I
it’s a trap, you say
like I’m trying to bait you
I don’t hunt for sport
II
shut your trap, she says
I comply, as I’m the prey
ensnared in her game
III
trapped within a web
intersecting lies constrict
tighter with each move
NaPoWriMo challenge, day two
unified resolve
urgent-voiced with tear-filled eyes
marching for their lives
flakes drift from night sky
snow drift builds against my sill
I drift off to sleep
Cee’s Black & White photo challenge: chilled
osprey circles high
sudden dive with talons splayed
fresh fish for dinner
#bluewave #resist
