Crusades
Christmas,
what a wonder:
we gather up our joys
to stand against the impending
darkness.

Raindrop rhythm
Falling fingers
striking keys
like a summer shower
that flows in waves.
A raindrop rhythm
that rolls in like the ocean tide,
waxes full in the sky,
and fades to a moonless night.
Breathless silence
yields to eager applause
as another storm rises
in jubilation.

Atlas
The world
is limited
by the scope of our hearts:
the people who keep theirs open
see more.

Laughter
Laughter,
strong medicine
that builds people back up
when they feel like they’re at their worst,
and rings
like the first song of the morning,
like a breath of fresh air
that blows through you,
and heals.

The lights of my life
Sunshine
lights up my days
like a summer bonfire.
I pass the long hours sweating
until
the daylight begins to wane, and
I lay there shivering
under the pale
moonlight.

Muddy thoughts
Some nights
when I’m feeling down in the dumps
I start to ask myself,
“Am I worthy
of love?”

Hibernation
I know
it’s desolate,
but no matter how bleak
today may seem to you, please – please,
Hold on.
The world is not done with you yet,
and somewhere out there wait
slumbering signs
of Life.

Toast
and boast
to the host
of whom’s the most
of all.

Promise
Promise
you won’t leave me.
Please don’t leave me alone.
It’s hard, but I’m worth the effort.
Trust me.
I would never leave you alone.
I know that things are hard,
but they’ll work out.
Promise.

Indigo
The King
was quite well loved,
and his mourning kingdom
laid him to rest in the evening.
Farewell.
*This poem is a continuation of a project where I chose a color, and wrote a poem on the first three words that came to mind. In this case, they were twilight, mourning, and an end of things (ending).*
