Posted: 9/10/2006 11:28:32 PM | A poem is
that moment when time stands still
that infinitesimal pause between heartbeats
when the silence holds anything and everything
A poem is
a figure in the distance breaking the surface of the water
to drink in the air, savouring each and every molecule
that holds the sanctity of life
A poem is
the last time he/she said good-bye to you
or the memory of it framed in your mind
ready for instant replay for the thousandth time
A poem is
the question in your mind now
teasing you with possibilities and alternate pathways
from a simple branch of yes and no
A poem is
you, reading these words,
every movement of your flesh as you interpret the printed word
every thought careening off in your own private, inner universe. | |

A poem
is that flash of lightning
just before
the impending blast.
A poem
is the aftermath
of that blast
when all grows still.
A poem
is the calm
before and after
the storm. | |

Our darkest secrets
& our deepest fears
Our passion, our souls, our desires and fears
A poem can make our days brighter
our life lighter
A poem is the serenity we crave
from the fiery in our heads
A poem fuses our heads with our hearts.
A poem lets us drift away to someone elses Utopia just for a day. | |

Liberating when love surrounds
Suffocating when cruel and unkind | |

Posted: 9/11/2006 4:25:16 PM | A poem
is the darkness
just before
the dawn
and the sun
when it reaches
its zenith
A poem
is a hiding place
and a place too open
for hiding
small as an atom
and a universe
unto itself | |
