Rhapsody Renewal
Written: February 1st, 2024

I propose they should read a poem
Set it in light and let it serve as a totem
Similar to a kaleidoscope display
Alas, listen to the beehive and sway
I quit
writing love poetry
ever since that day
I saw starlight
suffocating
to death
in a smother
of cindered dreams
and the moon burying itself
under the wings of
immigrating pledges
I
waited
for dawn
to usher me
through the dark
rummaging the
clouds for a
remain of
sunrise
dot
to dip my feather in
its shine just to find
blank blackness
cramming the horizon
so I stopped writing of
l
i
g
h
t
I'm struggling still
to grasp
your susurrations
to be used to
the rhythm
my fingers shiver with
at the sound of
their echo
in which letters oscillate across the page
akin to sunflowers swinging in the hand
with a sense of a spring breeze in a cage
Blows between the lines in another land
twilight
of
musings
as ink drips
shimmering
in a rainbow aurora
and poems blossom
back to life
drenched
in
morning dew
