Channeling women
Phenomenal and Wondrous
Flowing through my veins
2017 Poetry project
Day 13
Petals dropping and
Dormancy setting in, ‘cause
Girl it’s a cycle
Day 12
My Introspection
Reflections got me like oh…
Lesson learned, now bloom
Day 11
Sometimes on journeys
You end up right back where you started
With all the twists
And all the turns
And those extra fun and complicated route deviations
That take you right back where you started
But somehow it all looks
Different
Like you have never been there before
But it is right back where you started
And it is good.
Day 10
Today is a Tracy Chapman kind of day
The kind of day were all my
Hopes and dreams are true
My freedom is not shackled
And
My
Strong
Women
Speak
Truth
Today is a Tracy Chapman kind of Day
Day 9
Familiar places
Filled with smiling faces and
Dandelion grazing
Day 8 Ode to Buses
My ode to Uneventful bus rides
Taking me to friend destinations
Stopping just enough so that
I get a glimpse of the whole journey
Day 7: Trust
All the ways to say…
trust
Trust
TRUST
Until it becomes…
love
peace
life
TRUST
LOVE
PEACE
LIFE
Day 6 : Somedays
Some days it is about them
Some days it is about me
Some days I just give up and remember that
It is about
Us.
Day 5
Crisis never fully formed
Triggering memories of past tragedies
Making me wish that
I wasn’t tryin’
To pass on my baggage
Crisis never fully formed
Revealing past scars
Making me wish that
I would let them heal
Believing in his trust in me
Crisis never fully formed
Because I’m not the same as them
Making me understand that
That trust is true
And I can love too
