Poetry "Fallen Words"

#poetry @newsbyyou

Words falling to the ground/
no longer in ownership/
a cluttering of accidental phrases/
meanings lost in the breeze/

Poetry "Echos"

Echos across wheat fields of my youth
wind creating amber waves
distant faces with knowing smiles
wishing me love and contentment
but it is not for them to give
those images of long ago
deep in my heart I know
we do the things we shouldn't do
so that we are accepted
so that we are successful
and so I sit on the ice cream churn
my grandpa turning the crank
my grandma setting the back yard table
those smiling faces shucking the harvest corn
I am in the past
and the past is in me

Poetry "our conversation"

In our hearts we hold on to love
and write the poems of eternity
knowing the other is there
moving through the day
as an invisable hand
extended across space and time
to touch my soul and to say
I am with you
in every way
through every day
I find your face
in the beauty of a butterfly wing
and you speak to me
through flashes of the FireFlies
on a warm summer night
though you are not here
our conversation continues
through the beauty of life
and the warmth of our souls

Poetry "What If"

what if..........
I never reach tomorrow
and unexpressed thoughts
fade in the rush of regrets
and my touch on her shoulder
lost in a fog of distraction
what if..........
I smile more often
and listen to her as she
searches for understanding
and my words become a memory
racing toward tomorrow

Poetry "If Tomorrow"

love is a flower
waiting for no one
an unfolding colour
a brilliant sunset
if tomorrow never comes
our words of love
written in the stars
on the lips of the wind
on the tears of a thunderstorm
on the murmer of a Dove
speak through eternity

Poetry "#neda hashtag poetry"

#neda poem You look down now/Our hearts look up/We know your power/To unveil love and truth/Your light shining through/Touching our souls

Poetry "Gender Sync"

#neda /robots praying in gender sync/ calling down the wrath of god / in patriarchal unison/ soft femaie voices silenced/ in male Theocracy

Poetry "Virtual Light Streams"

Vines are creeping
up highrises
Tall grasses sprout
where cars once sped
Monorails zip to
mountain top and shore
We meet face to face
on virtual light streams
The choices made
are right for all
As we bid adieu
to olden day Memes

Poetry "Tube Noise"

we sit here
looking at the tube
laughing with the laugh track
crying with the sound track
the world speeds by
unnoticed in this room
we are together
in our scripted silence
running out our days
with reruns of yore

Poetry "Ode to Nascar"

Is it the wheels going round
Is it the pistons up and down
Is it the spark across the gap
the once great forests
now below in liquid black
that we are naught to resist
and disdain comprehension
we watch in great numbers
the Speedway of Regret
