Gideon’s Challenge

July 6, 2022July 6, 2022 / Twist the Leaf / Leave a comment

IMG_0594Abundance Promised

Blossoms fade
for fruit to bare
as leaves flutter
in summer breezes
and as I lie
on grassy earth
and breathe in
the bounty
of summer’s yield
that tickles my nose
and whispers
in my ear
of the promise
of goodness
yet to come

IMG_1951Inner Turmoil

Emotions
churn like
storm clouds
as lines
of demarcation
are drawn
in the sky
like sand
bisected
while tears fall
like raindrops
as darkness
and light
play tug-of-war
with the soul

IMG_0499Frayed Edges

Energy so stable
twitches
with disruption
as tattered petals
cling
then fall
and anxiety
shakes loose
all the little pieces
still barely
clinging on
leaving me bare
barren
and raw
exposed
and vulnerable

IMG_0589The Lullaby

I want to lie
beneath new fronds
hanging heavy
From low branches
and look up
through the green
to the blue
far above
as I breathe in
scents
of rich earth
and lush green
while birdsong
serenades me to sleep

IMG_0656Moment of Longing

Grasses wave sweetly
in a breeze so soft
it licks sweat off skin
and sends
strands of hair
dancing
and all I want
all I need
is to slip feet
from within
the confinement
of shoes
and stretch out
in the grass
to watch clouds
floating by

IMG_0621Ignorance Broken

I want to turn
my head away
and pretend
that all is well
but danger
keeps me alert
and wary
no matter
how much
I want to believe
everything
will be okay
in the end
