BlueSky Poetry

I remember the day I was adopted.
A tiny body in a chair too large,
a waiting room, a nun,
and a door that opened slowly.
A woman knelt smiling,
a man bent closer—
and in that moment,
my life quietly began.

Majestic sun rises
thawing the numbness of seeds
green flashes spark life,
lush,vibrant splendor of foliage
beckons the migratory birds,
bounty of blossoms blush
their smiles stretch for miles
warming the world,
gratified by the magnanimous spring

Hills and tree converse.
Three words could capture the flow.

Tiny wings announce change.
Three words would capture the first.

Moments between remain uneasy.
Three words hold the passage.

#ThreeWordGenre #poetry #BlueSkyPoetry #photography #art

Night Laundry glows softly.
Three words could describe this scene.

#ThreeWordGenre #poetry #BlueSkyPoetry #photography #art

Trees mirror themselves here.
What three words could capture the reflection?

#ThreeWordGenre #poetry #BlueSkyPoetry #photography #art

love is
keeping your heart
softened

while also
knowing that some people
won't change,

that cruelty
will be their currency
until the grave -

& then,
outlasting
them.

Birch trunks kindle
an austere blue radiance,

moonlight extends
a lucid corridor
across unsullied snow,

guiding the gaze
beyond the quiet grove

toward a veiled valley
where dark water rests

and winter night
keeps immaculate stillness.

Treachery's Etiquette

A frontal thrust is crude,
The blade's true work is viewed
From where the gaze eschews.

No thrust succeeds without
The feigned and trusted scout,
Whose loyalty's abuse.

Watched Three pings send me cold. I know I shouldn't look but do. “It says you were active.” “It says you’re online.” “You told me you were sleeping…” I stare at the screen, exhale. Toggle settings. Don't respond. Pray for peace and get five more pings instead. “It says info not available.” “It says status withheld.” “What the hell are you doing?” “I know you’re there.” “Who are you with?” My eyes ache. I delete the messages. Make this tomorrow’s problem. I switch the phone to silent to smother the pings, turn my back to the glow, and hope sleep will carry me somewhere he can’t follow. I can’t do this anymore.

Happy ##PoemsAbout day.
