MY ENTRIES FOR EXPRESS IT IN EIGHT. |
ENTRIES FOR CONTEST. A mysterious moment can happen anytime, anyplace. It can appear any minute, any hour without a trace. It can happen when you're awake or sound asleep. It's a moment in time that your mind will forever keep. It's just something that comes and goes, you cannot see. It can forever remain an unknowing, unsolved mystery. So, take it easy and look everywhere for the clue to find. A mysterious moment can just be somewhere in your mind. How did this stone face come to be? Was it by simple man or just naturally? Man can carve, etch and hammer all day. Nature creates with water all the way. No matter how you believe it came to be. It's quite a mysterious sight for me to see. Something for us to enjoy, but never fear. Telling its story for the world to finally hear. Many late nights when the world slows down Inspiration, imagination come sneaking around Disturbing my dreams without an end in sight Nothing can keep them from my sleepless night I listen as the house has no sounds to make Gathering my thoughts, I lie in bed still awake Having soothed my soul and I find peace in time The strike of midnight I write my motionless rhyme. NEW SOLUSIONS TO OLD PROBLEMS Peeking out my window I see the yard covered in snow 5 feet deep Right away I think, how do I shovel this and survive the cold outside Over by the door I see my snow shovel standing there waiting for me Bless its heart it has shoveled many a year of ice and snow dutifully Looking at my husband in his warm chair I ask if he would help me Emerging from his chair he looks out the window and then sits back down Making a grumbling sound like an old bear, he picks up the telephone Says problem is taken care of, men show up with snowblowers, job done. Walls all over the busy city are covered in colors and words. A world full of hurt and joy becomes written on blank canvas. The images that rest there can seem like they are watching you. Creating an illusion that your brain brings to your attention daily. Haunting your very dreams that become nightmares so quickly. Eyes in places that you never knew existed watch you closely. Regardless of the destruction and devastation they may cause. Somehow the watcher will chase you everywhere till the end. |
