Settle

Settle in

Lay down your bags

Remove your shoes

Release the weight

In your arms

In your legs

Slow your breathing

Pause.

No more running

Or planning what's next

The sun is reaching through the branches

It's a soft, warm glow this morning

The coffee still steams a little

And each breath is fresh and full

Your muscles

Your joints

Are begging you let them fall

Just be

Curl up in the blankets

And stay

Stay

For a little while

In this place

With me

#writerscreed #poeticstories #poetry #poetryportal #poem #savage words #smittenbypoetry #writeblr #note for future me: a poem about being worried im running out of time yet knowing it will take time so living and enjoying the space im in #being a mom #having a baby #trying to capture this time that is going so fast

And I don’t know how to do it-

I either give too much

Or not enough.

I’m either a flowing River

Or a rigid wall.

My heart can’t match its beat

To another, and it refuses to belong

To anything

but me.

It hurts…it hurts but

Even alone,

I am complete.

Like a mountain, I stand…

The clouds hiding its peak.

NaPoWriMo Vol. 3, 4.15.24 “Stamps“

Let me pay the postman Who sends my s.w.a.k. away Let me pay with penance With pennants and reminders Remainders of my taxes Waxing moons and bent and broken spoons Let me pay the postman Who sends my parcel to partners With letters laced with love Doodles and daliance And not delays But in many many ways Let me pay the postman Who sends my love’s my love With scribbles and scrabbles Points both high and low With leaves and petals And victorious medals Please postman let me pay

Farewell

Untie your hands, love, use your feet

Let go of my waist, dance to your own beat

It will be clear, if only you'd wipe away your tears

For your happiness, I'd go and face my fears

The wind in my sails, we're at your stop

Promise me I'll at least be in your map.

I hope I never hear a bird’s song and get annoyed by it,

No matter how early the morning, nor the lack of coffee I’ve had.

May I never forget how beautiful this world can be,

And my problems never weigh me down too far from happiness

That can be found in a lovely bird’s song.

S.a

metroponics

most people are metroponically grown rootless, the root of our exploitation of self, of earth, of spirit.

befriend soil and then tell me the ways you will commit injustice.

gracefully, if at all

* lightning bugs* grace our front porch post-dusk gathering around its light;

greater-elder respecting it seems, as game truly does recognize game,

...best done gracefully, if at all.

summer’s solstice sends certain sights & sounds our way, enthralling us

if only it could be year round...

by so doing, we could enjoy the display until midnight from the dawn

knowing we've not yet lost our way

lured by the blue illusions' glow too often held in our palm. * 7/23 - lebuc - gracefully, if at all *some say fireflies...not i.

copper daylight fades— you say: the soul seems to bite itself— wet with—tramline longing, a little monstrous—but bearable; and recall all the people-shapes—

who mounted you—

in slanting control, hefty and sisyphean

and i was just throat then—

when you come again, again— we look for something that's not there, your hands—trace trains with ease,

ease known only to shamans who brought kings down—through carbon prophecies— they are jinns now—hidden in functionless art frames or

satiny mire staggering towards

sleeping clouds

or mesmerizing machines that lack

lyrical or conversant, quiet or stormy "being," we can confess— to satiating chaos merging into hours dilatory,

your spread of awnings in

that precarious spikenard embrace—

cleaves the moist sky

"Every day I love you, oh how I love to.. I love telling you things to make you happy, I really love it when you laugh for me. I love it when you approve of the things that I do, I love it when you make me swoon and yearn.. oh how I softly burn to the ground in my shoes, would you like to take a turn? Any time you want, any place.. I would grab you by the waist and kiss your face."

I have no choice.. I gave you my heart willingly and now it swells like the sea - eUë

We danced under the kitchen moonlight

Sparkling cider in our engraved flutes

She twirled and laughed

And threw her arms in the air

While we counted down

Clean, fresh hope in our lungs

Damn it's a good life

And with little hearts growing

Bigger

Bigger still

Every breath

Every hug

Every kiss

A promise

It's only going to get better

Maybe I should have gone to you

In January, when the cold

Rang in the earth’s bones-

Shaking,

Shaking

Shaking you unsteady

Your heart heavy

Your mind ready

To unravel.

Yes, maybe I should have gone to you-

Even if you would have gone away,

Anyway.

Idle Steps 3.30.24 “Shadowbox Theatre"

Though only rubble remains Life once thrived here Seen only in the setting sun’s shadow Corridors once filled with love harbor only fear A place loses itself without people Strong memories seep through to floorboards Staining the very memory of the construct Burdened with beams and knowledge, such records A person loses themselves without places Ground into and grounded to their memory A person needs a place to be– A child needs a place to flee Though only in the dying day May we ever truly see the world this way

I knew I loved you then, but I didn't tell

You've only fallen and I wasn't well

Cold, cold days with arms wrapped mine

Flowers were wilting, and you're looking for a sign

I want to be better, you want me to be yours

I keep screaming, screaming 'till my voice is hoarse

But you didn't know, didn't know 'cause you were deaf and blinded

I was paralyzed, trying to be found, you're lost, we're both stranded

I was rage, you were kindness, we made a home out of lies

Second chances, third ones, a promise that flies

A pair of wings growing while one withers away

I will never deserve you, I didn't ask for you to stay.
