Taking some advice from my writerly buddy Jessie I’ve decided to put this ‘word in progress’ up for a few days. I’d really love to know what everyone thinks of it. I do have a rough direction I want to take it but it’s all still vague in my head. Likewise, I’d also love to know what anyone takes from my words. The title and last line hold particular meaning to me but I don’t want to give it away and bias others. :) Enjoy.
PS, if you’re curious about what spawned my total change in style (as I perceive it) you might be interested in reading this post.
I am a dance never ceasing
a constant flow of little moments
strung together in time
dewdrops on a spider’s web
glistening and reflecting
experiences of the internal story
I am a song yet to be sung
born in the rhythm of flying rain
whispered to the blackened night
notes never play too in sync
surging through veins
the tempo in my lone heart beat
I am wings hardly used
seldom soaring
on feathers once plucked
toeing at the cliff tops
the taste of blood on the wind
a memory of delight
I am a path seldom taken
exotic to the senses
and unknown to the touch
soft sand never broken
by crushing waves
of society’s firm paw
I am this poem
beyond punctuation
written with a different ink
penned beneath tired eyes
and pulled beyond it’s structure
a testimate to the violets
i love to watch you branching out!
Lolz, it’s all thanks to you- most especially in the poetry department. I honestly don’t think I would have ever reached beyond the tried and true rhyme scheme without a bit of prodding and influence. :)
