Poem Title:
Poem
A new day, a new world, a new tomorrow Shades of painted corners face these inward fears Now drenched in today’s worries, as flat as the cornerstone of suffering caught within boundaries along wasting moments, crying blanket feelings, pounding on the walls of despair “leaving fist prints like so many discarded roses” Calling out to the endless deafness “Time it does not heal, scars merely cut deeper”, in echoes among the tapered distance Fog engulfs the melody, slowly chasing after poetic symphonies playing from a southern direction “vertical compass points from there to here” Your weary hand trembles violently as it reaches, pleads where a monochrome sun sets, beyond the chosen horizon in heart shaped vistas and sweet tea landscapes Trust grows in amber glowing beacons waving banners of solitude “free flowing fabric beckoning in longed for motions” You force the stoic front door open, creaking hinges scream, fears cup beneath your chest Breathing in the stench of the past but lured by the fragrance of the future Where sorrow drowns in cascade pools, pain hides where it can not be found and he waits to lift you beyond the darkness “and you find you have wings, safely within his opened arms” Now floating towards a white picket gate, swinging freely beneath the arbor, once a collection of lattice work shadows, dark lines on a desolate earth, now a tapestry of blooms, woven among long dreamt dreams and clover leaf wishes revealing a pathway to the beginning of “a new day, a new world, a new tomorrow” 3/22/17 Written for the New Day poetry contest Sponsored by Nayda Ivette Negron
