One Is...

 One’s fire

And fireworks.

Looking at the one I am carrying

In the mirror

This satisfaction of being

One, for

One’s exactly the same

And   

Completely different.

One’s the sea  

as it meets the sky in the horizon.

One’s peace

Minding the mind

The understanding

The sympathy.

One’s nothing

Compared to everything

And

Everything

Compared to the whole.

(Adapted from a poem I once wrote called Who Am I?- long ago)

Time, Part IV by Aimee Stewart

falling in

It’s feathers

Silky

So gentle and smooth

Soothing

Subtly stroking my chin

My cheeks, then

My humid  lips
.

And I wake up

To find you there

Caressing me here

.

With your mild

.
Sweet

Fingertip.

short

Only one tear drops

With the petal

Of the one

only rose

Picked up

on my yesterday walk

Feeling you near

In the one

only second

of no thoughts

I look back to see

You’re gone.

It's Tuesday, it's Open Link Night at d'verse- join and enjoy!

abaft

This is

Where the far end of the snowstorm gets

This is

Where we are not adapted

And no heating is enough,

for most have none

This is

A place to swim, sunbathe

And wear cardigans at the most.

Not a place to shiver and freeze

Where scarves and thick socks

 do not do their deeds

Because it gets deep

 into the bones till

 we get stuck

and paralysed.

let loose

I take it

you are wandering about me

messing my free moments up

I take it it’s for the sake of love

or obsession

a fixation

a compulsion

that wakes you up

if I’m not there

you won’t take it

and a blink is not enough

you need to play the whole game

over and over

until you get back

wandering about me.
