Frozen Spring morning
Fledgling awakening
Fractured, tired country lane
Faded flivver of old
Frowsy homes struggle life
Fricative hushed voices
Flowers still arch and farl

Fragments of Me

Inspire Me Thursday prompt ~ shrink
~

Shrink me down into
All I really am
~
I am a thinker
A little dark at times ~
But it is a shiny darkness
Creating light
~
I am quartz
Raw
Unpolished
Pale violet quartz
Waiting to be found by
Any stray miner
~
I am the world of pharaohs
Ancient worlds with
Ancient thoughts
~
I am the eternal calendar
Cycling and
Re-cycling through
Patterns of time
~
And I know
The god within me
Respects
The god within you

NAMASTE

The garden is a blur of broken fences
And fallen leaves

Fragmented with tears
And eerie
Liquid
