Just above our heads

Image
Walking in the open fields The sky is not far,  It is just above our heads. How we see it, we touch it with our eyes. Drifting clouds, Cool breezes hurtling Boughs swing and sway The sky is rundown It wears robes stitched with patches of gray and blue Overhead, It makes a good roof Fair weather. . #openfields   #sky   #clouds   #above   #heads   #see   #eyes #words   #comeout   #walk   #lookup   #fairweather   #weather #perspective   #nature   #goodvibes   #naturenerd   #arboreal  #writivism

Subdued by time

Image
The Great Orb breaks away from the sky when Subdued by time, Staining the horizon orangish To signal a new birth, Setting bushes on fire A new life Blaring cars rush the streets As residents dash for their abodes their faces sparkling In the nascent night Under the illumination of lights lining the town's streets Casting shadows of their fears and hopes for the day Silhouttes, walking,  swallowed by darkness When they clear off the municipal lights To their thresholds And the crickets will chirp the night away  under the wide of twinkling stars  till Daybreak. . . . #sun #sky #clouds #sunset #subduedbytime #orb #orange #golden #horizon #newbirth #nascent #newlife #crickets #chirp #silhouttes #fear #hope #darkness #twinkling #stars #writivism #lateralthoughts

Neon eyes

Image
The glistening neon. Your eyes, solid, teary, sheeny, cold, motionless, fixated on one elusive love saltating to the club music in a better company With a strong want and restraint, fuddling, Oblivious of your torments Eye, how do you handle loss? In a vat of vodka? . . . #neon #glistening #solid #motionless #teary #sheeny #neoneyes #elusive #love #paper #pencil #art #lateralthoughts #ineptsketcher 

The rain

Image
The rain makes,  germinates, grows, spuds Our seeds, our food, our plants Roots, tubers and leaves. The rain blooms, breaks, carries, causes Flowers and hedges Our roofs, walls collapse and rumble Bridges submerge, we lose sight of ridges. The rain collects, cuts, drowns, drives At reservoirs, breaking dykes Mire, mucky, wrecking roads. The rain floods, generates, lights, powers Streets glimmer, trees falling on roads Industries run, homes warm. The rain pullulates, thrives, squelches, quenches. Ginger rhizomes, wheat fields lush The thirsty ground and souls soused. Tramples the flower, trend plants it helped grow and bloom, the rain. Thunder in the big forests slays wood, timber roasts by lightning. The rain, gives life,  kills. #words   #reflect   #reflection   # iLikewords   #abarrageofwords   # poetry   #raindrops   #seeds # germinate   #plants   #grow   # thrive   #flowers   #bloom #r
