Compassion   Vcl2017

On reflection

Sometimes things 

Get broken

And you just can't

Fix it

You just can't 

Kiss it 

Make it better

It just won't move

Or improve.

It gets caught

In a groove

And you've wiggled

And waggled

Without success

But stepping back

Learned to live

Without something 

Important

And You did not die.

Like a Tree   vcl2014
                                                             

Beneath this tree I stand
Rooted by circumstance
In the here and now.
I write of frivolous things
The sun and sea,
The warm kisses of children
Love gained and lost
Sometimes a prisoner
Longing to escape
The forest of discontent
But now envisioning a state
Of peaceful happiness
With the seedlings planted
Around me, words
Forming deep roots of their own
Growing gracefully
To hide and protect me
                                                                When my days are done.
                         

A~ Acrid. #atozchallenge 2017

Sometimes life is filled

With the acrid smell of burnt toast dreams

Unpalatable to most

Yet occasionally there is one 

Who will take a knife

Scraping away the blackened ugliness 

 Salvaging that bit of goodness 

Others miss.
