Popsicles

So many flavors

So many colors

So many I want to try

.

But the popsicle trays

So little

So less

So limited what I can make

Push that bag

High on the loft

Let it speed towards

The golden valley

Sunny days

Finally here

A respite from the rain

And it's soggy gloom

Stay as long as you like

And keep away the rains

Oh sunny days

The water wheel spins

Harvests go by

Wee seeds turn into massive trees

One house turns to many

Even then

The water wheel continues to spin

The twinkling night sky

Stretching deep into the unknown

Let me get lost in you

And become one of your stars

The dice are a cruel mistress

Roll them

But only if

You can weather all their outcomes

Making tea

.

A spoonful of inspiration

Mix them with ideas

Boil them in the kettle on your shoulders

Wait for it to whistle

Pour it in paper cups

Serve with fresh crumpets

Sometimes I look for the warmth and love

We shared

.

Only to remember that we don't share anything

With each other anymore

As I climb up the stairs of life

The ones below fade to dust

.

That dust settles into

The mold of my memories

I'm a windmill

And the wind

Constant with your love

Keeps me going

Fast clocks and trifold maps

Armor polish and vitamins

Blindfolding us from the monotony

Helping us live out our fantasies

The dark void growls inside

It devours my happiness to survive

.

If there is no happiness inside

The dark void won't let me survive

[onepoemblog]

168.

The embers glow within

Searching for others

Embers that can create fire

Out of pure desire

A sleeping car

Tired after today's race

Resting

Recovering

Dreaming?

.

What would you say cars dream about?

.

I'd say,

Spending time with their owners

Both doing what they love together

Don't know how I feel

Or rather how I should

The music is ever changing

And I cannot find my colours

In this rainbow of emotions

[onepoemblog]

165.

I'm tethered

Unable to detach myself from the wall

.

It provides me life

And yet it is the source of my unhappiness

Love is not a silver bullet

However it sure makes it easier

To make a lot more bullets
