Blank Page


I'm looking at this page

thinking of how to begin

Afraid, scared, of what they will say

and will my words turn to sin


Will they say it is lame?

Before they've even read it?

That's how we play the game

And every word, I've written, I've meant it


The page is filling up now

I'm having more and more to say

whipping the sweat off my brow

This poem has formed, Smooth as clay.

Starring through the closed Window


Hush

Red, green, and yellow

Living by the wind

Being pushed and pulled

in both directions


Blinding

fire burning

in glory

yellow, orange, and red

Forever


Shiver, Shiver

When


When all the stars have turned to dust

and the sun crumbles into sand

then what will happen to what's left of us

How much of us can you demand?


When volcanoes erupt

Spewing lava everywhere

Will humans say they've had enough

Or will they even care?


When the Ice Age is afresh

and Humans leave this Earth

leaving their marks and a wish

Not to give up hope for rebirth


As the Seasons change to Autumn.


Crystallized Hopes

Formed with the new season

As the heat begins to rise

Those hopes shatter.


Green dreams

Swaying in the wind

rising higher

Those hopes falling to their deaths.

The Last

The last rain of spring

Cloudy and dull

falling to the ground

rivers filled full


The last rose of summer

wilted and dead

forever forgotten

left in its dread


The last leaf of Autumn

Discolored and brown

crunched on the sidewalk

from the muddy streets in town


The last snow of winter

run through and cold

Frosty is melting
