Ars Poetica - by Lily

Give me the keys to Creation

September 16th 2007 06:57
hello poem….

this is the poem I wrote

when I was trying to write

a poem; if it’s a poem at all

it’s got strength in it

and love, lust and affection

it’s got lush green trees

and red soil, it’s got

highways and field paths

and birds and nests

it’s got rain puddles

sun shiny queens

and a verandah with a rocking chair

I feel thunder


The one I wrote yesteryear

had secrets of sleuths

and foreign hotels

it had strings and biting off tags

and sins, rages, jealousy

it had speeding cars

and swinging lights

bitten nails and fear

it had torn down fences

and a trickle down a chilled glass



~Lily

Hi lily

You have such beautiful thoughts.

it had torn down fences

and a trickle down a chilled glass

I really love those images.

I hope the whirlwind leaves your world soon with a fresh and cleared plate infront of you.

Hugs

Ash

Beautiful images, you seem to capture them with ease.

When you find the keys to creation, maybe I could borrow them some time?

hi JoH, and welcome..

the title was a little pout at my muse.. indeed, this flowed in easy, but very few poems do...
