Goddess of a Thousand Words

She is standing on the edge of the world,
Calling out your name,

Turn to watch her go, but you’re always too late.
She is a goddess of a thousand words,

Each lyric pressed against your brain.

Hold her close, or she’ll disappear.

Sweetly singing her songs over,
And over again across the seas.

Rush Into Me

Rush into me,
The breath of life.
Knock me down,
Spiraling into madness.

A madness that cannot be explained,
Into the high mountains of pure paradise.
Flitting upwards like a bird,
Tweeting cheerily.

Grace me with your gentle touch,
Place me under your beautiful gaze.
Erase the horrified thoughts you sense,
Beneath my skin in a majestic land.

Far from sanity,
Not quite insane,
Let me fall,
Let me fall.

Global Warming

Up above the stars lies a world of mystery

Down beneath them, lies a horrid history...

Our Earth is slowly dying, this is a true fact,

Some don’t like to believe it... *sighs*... Imagine that.

Please note... (3/27/2011)

This is just a little note to let everyone know that all of the poems below were not written today.  Some of them were written at least three years ago, and I dug them up from various places.  I may eventually get to the point where I put the dates they were all written...  If I do so, I will be sure to leave a note!

And also, I may not *always* have poetry on this blog.  I may just write about my feelings or something, so just keep that in mind :)

Cat Woman

Cat Woman

She prowls the night,

Stealthily searching for her next toy,

The next fun thing to play with,

To tease.

Leather bound tightly to her body,

All features defined to perfection.

Crouching on all fours.

Catching a glimpse of the moon,

Peeking through the trees,

"I see you" it whispers playfully.

She hisses in annoyance.

She hears a noise behind her,

With cheetah-like speed she whirls,

Spinning silently on the spot to investigate,

Only to find... Nothing.

Jolting her head from left to right,

Smelling the air.

Pressing her palms into the earth,

Feeling vibrations of footsteps...

She feels the rhythm of four feet,

Pounding lightly on the dirt.

This creature is trying to be silent.

"Creature?"

"Is it human?"

"Could it be like me?"

She smells the air again.

"Maybe it is human?"

"A man, perhaps?"

Mind racing, heart fluttering,

A delicate, yet fierce scenario plays out in her head.

Excitement sparks in her eyes,

In the velvet death of the night,

Cat Woman had found something...

Her toy,

This man,

Not creature,

Belonged to her now.

"Mine" she growled with a smile,

Pouncing.

Daydream

Daydream

Swimming through a field of wildflowers,

Dreaming in a cloud of lace.

Vines of ivy sneak into your soul,

They are impossible to erase.

Blissful wisps of beautiful tune,

Merrily floating through my head.

Wishing so badly to be in your arms,

But no, I'm alone instead.

The breeze is so wonderful on this sweet autumn day,

I wish you were here,

Wish you'd come out and play.

Arrival of Autumn

Arrival of Autumn

Summer ceases,

While the dew point increases,

Warm days at the lake,

Soon turn to snuggling up in a sea of blankets.

Leaves retreat from the boughs,

Swirling and twirling,

Quietly dancing downwards,

Unaware of what's to happen next.

Flowers intake the last of their breaths,

Yawn and stretch,

And finally lay their heads down to rest.

Autumn winds exhale around trees,

Stirring what's left on their branches,

A crispy, cinnamon colored leaf falls away from it's once loved home.
