Talking across
A point
Circular and spiralling
Missing what is hidden
In the words
Reaching an agreement
Via misunderstanding
Nothing heard
A lot said
What inspires one to write? For me it is an irresistible urge to assemble words together that results in the creation of imagery that I experience when I look at the world around me. I can not remember a time that I was not writing, especially poetry. To write a poem is to use the fewest words to create a glimpse into a new world or perspective. By Allison Brown
Talking across
A point
Circular and spiralling
Missing what is hidden
In the words
Reaching an agreement
Via misunderstanding
Nothing heard
A lot said
The soft touch of the breeze
Swirls under the blue
A mesh of white drifts
Upon the edges
As day fades
Flecks of light appear
Looking at the world
Through eyes seeing
Shades -
Shadow or light
Mingling
Twining
Detaching
Merging
Dancing across my eyes
I take a pause
Contemplating
Over thinking
Dwelling
- Pause -
Change direction
- Well try to -
I take a moment
Shake my head
Sip my drink
Look out
Watch the world
The weather
Changing
