#gratified
for all the friends
I have made
along the way
beacons through
the tough times
and cheerleaders
when life takes
a remarkable turn
I thank them all

#emoetry #poetry #writing #writingcommunity

Bounty of berries
gratifies hungry bears
before hibernation,
migratory warblers sing
amidst steady branches,
salmon leap upstream,
autumn equinox alchemy
transforms green to amber
thereby, vibrant season begins

You gave tranquillity
comforting words
you made me gratified for the life I live
You took me outside
away from dark corridors
and led me away
so I could breathe once more

Nurture your kind spark
with acts of benevolence
from deep within you.

What brings us pleasure
is the joy of something nice.
Let's find that fine place.

Mistreated muscles,
Gradually gratified,
Deep tissue massage.

Frantic

I mean...

you smiled at my joke
but then surely
you're a smart person
who will notice
most of my cleverness is just
borrowed Monty Python
and who the hell
brings Connery into
that skit about soccer philosophers
and why
gods why
did you laugh and make me
want to do it more?

#emoetry

I've been ruminating on old memories lately and I don't like it.

#Emoetry

They were all around
A gang of many bullies
My nerves all frantic

#Frantic search
phone calls
round up
volunteers
to retrace
his steps
a mother sits
and waits
and hopes
that her son
is all right.

Granny:
Don’t y’all run
in the house
now baby y’all
might hurt y’all
self.
Me: Ha Ha Ha
thud thud thud
Cousin: Ha Ha Ha
thud thud thud

Boom! Me: Ha Ha Ha

I hit the corner
of the wall nearly
crushing my skull
as I looked in the mirror
and saw all that 🩸
only then was I #frantic

The Builder

Frantically,
brick by brick,
she walls the world
out,
blocking birdsong
and loves passion;

a professional mason,
hands gnarled by
stone,
she knows no other
way;

Cemented away from
rejection,
red cold world
her bedmate

#emoetry #vss365 #mpprompt #poetry

Lend your listening ear
Attend to transformation
The frantic rush home
