once in the light
glimmer captured
foreign and alive
wolf in waiting
whale turning
splash of running wind
fast and wild
could not capture
the taste of wet water
fluid forms
shadows shining
beneath the swelling seas
broken shell
biting wind
guarded paws wander
howling heard
far afield
i recognize the sound

the beauty of her canvas
ejected the slight blemish
exposed in her pouting presence
as a dark dot
on the corner of
her flinching smile.

Michelle’s Poefusion friday five:
pout, dot, flinch, eject, blemish
nomadic by nature
collecting rose quartz
espy a pickpocket place
rummage a rocky retreat
buttons and bones
litter the refuge reward
steady sigh requiem
orphan stumbling search
motherless phantom face
refurbish reasoning
written in words
no longer propose
heal the affliction
fettered wound
last beat release
finding truth
entre nous
rubbled ruins
ticking time
my name
is called
scattered
silent ashes
shelley’s retreat

embrace
don’t let go
freedom remembers
your involuntary bondage

one single impression no 9: flowering…

seeking seeds breeze bears
disembarking waiting fields
wet rains fetch gravy
gathering brown leaves
heaps of last fall piled high
cycled seasons pass
snow melting reveals
waiting young green early blooms
pallet cold cool earth
warm sunshine arrives
spreading kosmic rays of strength
new birth inhales
