Thankful

Thankful

For the words

That can come

From a moment

Of time

Thankful for the night

And the day

That surrounds our

Lives

Thankful to be

Allowed to say

Thanks

Today

Thinkable

Posted on November 8, 2022 by acupofsongwriting

Would the noise

That creates the hopes

Of one person

Have been thinkable

Without being said

In the open air

I wonder

What the course of

Actions will be

For my own future

Of the thinkable moments

That lie ahead

Renewal

What is renewal

To start again

From original sin

To the depths of the moment

We find ourselves in

So heed the time

And take time

To renew

The mind

A Blank Ship

Posted on September 29, 2022 by acupofsongwriting
Reply

A blank ship

Hits the White Sea

From the moment

It launched

It was plain to see

That nothing was right

About the moment

Of go

Who knows

Where the ship rolls

Into the high seas

On a day set

From the start

Of eternity

Delay and Time

Posted on April 12, 2022 by acupofsongwriting
Reply

It’s not the quick

Type of thing

When the words

Spring

From the heart of

One who makes

The decision to go

When others hold

Hope

But a delay can create

An opportunity

To see the future

Or take a break

Another Thunder

Posted on January 13, 2022 by acupofsongwriting

Out over the vast

Fresh ocean

Of waves and sand

A grip of thunder

Roars out

Over the land

With a lightning

Quick and commanding

Another thunder

From the beach

And sand

A Secret Trouble

Posted on January 11, 2022 by acupofsongwriting
Reply

A secret trouble

Holds down my heart

In ways

I never knew

What to do

When the whole of opportunity

Is now a faded blue

I hold back the anger

And now face to face

With the danger

Of a trouble

Held

Deep

Within

Another Go

Posted on December 26, 2021 by acupofsongwriting

Another go

Is the way it went

Over the evening

Spent alone

That night

So tonight I

Try again

See a future

Of hope

Another Try

Posted on November 23, 2021 by acupofsongwriting
Reply

Another try

Can take place

At midnight

Of my full disgrace

So I hold

A hope

That more will

Come from

Where this all will

Go

Morning Blood

Posted on June 25, 2021 by acupofsongwriting
Reply

At first sight

There was hope

But then blood was drawn

With one poke

Of the eye

With the social feed

Roaring with fire

And stoked wherever you go

There was morning blood

Drawn

Even if you didn’t

Know
