Prayer

I offer Gratitude for sleeping through nightmares I ask for consciousness -to be awake -to absorb positivity of a cherished dream coming true I ask for receptacles to be created to multiply joy How does it matter if my eyes are open or shut? https://dversepoets.com/2022/05/16/quadrille-night-sleepy-times/

Rocks

rolling stones gather no moss smoothness facilitates motion adaptability to different terrains nominates them for victory static rocks acquire character -are worshiped for history they support -till they forget worlds beyond their compressed energy suffocates - unaware that release is possible they can live again… https://dversepoets.com/2022/05/02/quadrille-2/

Fluid Plans

we are different like chalk and unerasable ink we write life stories with preferred tools I retain liberty to erase, reimagine, rewrite. your plan is religion and change sacrilege I let hard lines be washed to make way for new flowing colors of life https://dversepoets.com/2022/04/18/quadrille-150-chalk-it-up-to-poetry/

On familiar grounds

transitoriness with a promise of recurrence -seasons promise coveted comfort I let fleeting thoughts become algorithms for future on familiar grounds change disturbs catches me unprepared with suitable clothing or temperature controls A new thought strikes I don’t have decoding software Catastrophe… Reject it… https://dversepoets.com/2022/04/04/dverse-monday-quadrille-149-tis-the-season/

Transition

stone tablets to leaves, to paper -silent witnesses to history in a state of decay giving way to mutable backgrounds alterable at will -to redefine context prove your truth screens instill hope history will neither support nor oppose -just transform to suit the future Written for dVerse Quadrille #148 - Papered Poems

Deception

windows to the soul give a filtered view with coloured lenses -eyes are no longer a barometer to the truth thick eyeglasses gauging stuff assume bare eyes do not give a clear picture vision deceives- without judgement only minds can apply backed by experience https://dversepoets.com/2022/03/07/eyeing-the-quadrille-147/

A decision

unstable feet advance slowly, carefully on wet ground eyes perplexed by a difficult choice -rainbow reflections in puddles below present myriad possibilities on slippery ground A drizzle washes away saltiness on cheeks -sunrays wink from the blues I think I have reached a conclusion https://dversepoets.com/2022/02/21/quadrille-146-lets-get-salty/

Little Birdie

Quadrille at dVerse today by Mish birds on my window sill wait for clouds to clear they will then fly to nibble at the sky taste remnants of clouds and come back to peck at crumbs I offer…. I feel so honored, little birdie to be part of your infinity

Power Shift

thunderous skies emit signals wordlessly unimagined energy overtakes known reality spine of Universe shivers unbalancing patterns of assumed supremacy a power waiting…. to teach new methods of existence under water in the air, no mirrors -a sense of self suspended between Consciousness and Real https://dversepoets.com/2022/01/24/quadrille-144-shivering/

Negativity

Negativity - a muse-um of thoughts burden of fears from past experience riding our back -moments passed long ago buried in history -shadows live like ghosts walking amidst us pulling us back creating mistrust -muse over imperceptible layers bid them goodbye to Move ahead… https://dversepoets.com/2022/01/10/quadrille-143-muse-cues/
