Deep Waters

"Deep Waters"


These walls full circle
This room full tide
Deepest Deep Waters
All shades of Blue
Floodgate sheds lives
Empty room 
Vacant garden bed
Dead Womb 
Departure
Called Home
Cut the chord
Reborn



(Lovejoy-Burton/April 2018)

Freddie Robinson Jr. Date: 4/30/2018 1:31:00 PM I agree totally w/Probir ... absorbing visuals to help accentuate this perfectly worded stand-alone prose. The beauty of your mind always amazes me. Keep your sparkling pen flowing w/glittering ink of wisdom. Love and joy always. Login to Reply Leanne Lovejoy-Burton Date: 4/30/2018 1:37:00 PM Prob off page for a few days.

Kishan Sharma Date: 4/27/2018 11:26:00 PM Nice Login to Reply Kishan Sharma Date: 4/28/2018 8:04:00 PM To tell the truth,I have become habitual now. My heart does not believe in what I do. Therefore, I express my feelings and write it. Leanne Lovejoy-Burton Date: 4/28/2018 6:09:00 PM Kishan, your most recent 'sonnet' is a real humdinger. It sounds to me like you have a thorn stuck in your heart. Very sad. Sometimes, you need to pull them out. It hurts for a little bit and then the wound heals. x
