MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘War or Peace’

war or peace
tell me please
what is best
it’s a test

flying missile
brings dismissal
superpower
oil devour

push through legal breach
catastrophic reach
instead release
the dove of peace

practice a bit of Zen
heal the mind of men

MORNING POETRY – ‘Icon Tremble’

criminal act
terror of people
occupy the mind

happening
at bondi beach
peace redefined

celebration of light
turned into darkness
the night has passed

for many the last

red color in the air
shattered parts
broken hearts

new daylight
chance to heal
every battleground

bring into awareness
the outer reflects the inner
we feel our own wound

chasing revenge
moral power
over lost life

our psyche
shadows
rife

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘Yarn’

soft feel of yarn
caressing fingers
colorful thread
bouncing on a table

sliding in and out
opening spaces
perfect for a hook
creative expression

in a flash of time
boundless and free
focused on the now
the world evaporated

healing the mind
bringing peace
internal harmony
tranquility

hooked

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘In Disguise’

lonely passerby
insolent demeanor
face hidden in a hoodie

focused eyes
scanning the surroundings
hands deep in pockets

mischief at the fingertips
on a lookout for treasures
in for a change of ownership

cool wind lifts the leaves
storm is brewing above
dark clouds on approach

the hoodie falls back
revealing mop of hair
over stern face

hurt and unheard
disillusioned with life
the face of a child

in disguise
