MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘New Light’

stream of memories
dusk transformed into dreams
with no makeup
the sun rose uncombed

aroma of fresh coffee
broke through the air
enlivening all the senses
helping the limbs move

daily miracle of life
the day brightened up
neither being asked
nor begged

letting go of darkness
the light gently shines
new opportunities
new chances

MIDDAY POETRY -‘Allness’

i used to be very opinionated
now i try to listen without reacting
i used to have an aggressive voice
now I try and speak without poison

my mind has changed direction
instead of ruffled feathers
i try to find a common ground
where there used to be conflict

the change has been ongoing
the reason for it meditation
calmness found in silence
the oneness found in allness

under construction
work in progress…

MIDNIGHT POETRY -‘Liar’

when we eventually retire
remnants white bones in fire

today is a chance to enquire
help lift out the veil higher
up from the earthy mire

brain pathways now rewire
get out that situation dire
common sense let defy her

once the truth transpire
old news begin to tire
resilience we acquire

it pays off to be a trier
when the rest still conspire
who they want to call sire

MIDNIGHT POETRY -‘The Fall’

the ground finally picked me in its arms
my color has changed greatly in the fall
i now transition into more shades of brown
when there is greater wind i learn to fly
now who can tell what am i
