Droplets Down

Droplets down -

They hit the ground

In Splashes.

The meaning of

Each droplet 

Is not the mess it made

On the ground,

The meaning of

Each droplet

Is where it came from,

where it was first found.

That trickle of water

Can be of sweat,

That trickle of water

Can be a tear,

And while they both

Make floors wet

One comes from power

And one from fear.

Flakes

Feelings like flakes

Of snow covering 

lands of thought

pouring through winter winds

Brushing past blushed cheeks

Simmering over every top

Thickening to feet of snow

Layer by layer

Fall some more.

A peek of sunshine

Comes out today

And easy as was

The flakes melt away.

This winter could have 

Been forever,

But flakes they always fade away.

When feelings can

Be solid as ice,

Then thought too

Is our demise.

Silence For Deaf

A riddle a day,

I've heard them say,

Keeps insanity at bay,

To lead logic's way.

A lipless kiss,

A moonlit tryst,

All but aimless..

So riddle me this:

What is

more tragic?

Silence, where all is withheld?

Or deaf ears, where none is heard?

Neither, said his moonlit lips,

The truest of tragedy, my midnight tryst,

is silence that falls on deaf ears.

Be Gone

And the angel she flies,
From above.
Her wings, the caress,
Feathers of serenity.
Rise up, child,
Come above.
This pain is not yours.
Let go,
Move on.

Ease your burden,
Go on then,
Offload.

And the angel she flies,
To the sky.
Her wings, the caress,
Feathers of serenity.
A remainder of light,
It stays.
This wisdom is yours.
Ego,
Be gone.
