Creating Peace

I shift my focus inward
I hum gently till the vibrations resonate
~ chanting clears my mind's cobwebs

The Cobwebs of Dreams

It was a sunny day, perhaps to clear
I thought
Mother sat in the kitchen sunlight, making her white hair into a halo
I asked how old she was, 92 she said, I knew
trapped in a dream, she didn't live that long
By the slow river, I saw furniture drifting 
My brother said that people who lived

A Playground of Cobwebs

forgotten by time
a playground of cobwebs 
thousands of footprints
I made in the sand 
              a lifetime ago
once so alive 
with activity and merriment 
 now a deserted place 
haunted by lingering ghosts
the silence, deafening 
reverberating e c h o e s 
of

Spooky Spiders

Hear Harry’s hysterical, startling scream.
Little spooky spiders made him run to the extreme.
It wasn’t a fairytale fantasy dream;
the cobwebs created a crazy football team.

Mother thought she’d heard their scary scheme,
so she planned to question the Queen.
I thought they were merely mean,
moving to our happy home, creating a scary scene.

cobwebs

Atypical fanfare
watch me with recoil
old dowager puts on her entice
withered cobwebs
of renewal desire
somewhere in the city
she  resides
selecting her prey
on social milieu
Greeting avarice like a dear friend
over a coffee and carrot cake

cobwebs
drape the moon
in silk

Blasted Cobwebs

Blasted Cobwebs
By: Jamie Aldridge
Sticky business is their modus operandi
You can try to say no
but then you realize
your legs won’t let go
With all your might
you put up a valiant fight
For so many years you
strive to be
the bug they long to devour
Yet, all they desire
is to watch you tire
of pointless attempts
to reel them in
How they watch you

Cobwebs

Emotional cobwebs broken apart
Feelings of ghosts kept in the dark 
Who guides the path of a broken heart
Waywardly distant and constantly on guard

Looking for light for the will to make it through
Constantly the burden is put upon you
Feeling deserted not having a clue.
That He's been standing all along right beside you.

Trudging thru swamps of desolate

Gossamer

Haunting beauty everywhere
Autumn spider weaves airy web
Bewitching season I am keenly aware
Gossamer mist so delicately spread.

Spider silk lovingly spun
Wonderful tremulous gossamer lace
Weaver satisfied her web is done
Glorious Autumn full of grace.

Mist and cobwebs create a spell
I live in a gossamer dream
Magical moment paints artful carousel
Nature beguiles with seductive theme.

rusted with disuse
heavy heart hammers in pain ~
spiders build cobwebs

King of Lions, Heaven Bound

His fur smelled of dust;
And cobwebs that covered his face
He found me to show me his new look
That he had gone and made.

I started laughing, 
He wasn't happy.

He charged me like a raging lion;
He was being comical, he's robust
I was laughing so hard, I was crying
It made my stomach hurt, I'd bust.

He was this tiny

Cobwebs

in the attic
under cobwebs
a stack of old books

Cobwebs of Life

Caught and captured in a web
Sticking in thought’s through life
Wondering and facing many trails
While spinning around in cycles
In this cocoon I am, stuck for life
My only escape will be my death
Eaten by mankind through time
Building a life that just disappears

Forgotten over time

Cobwebs - Season of Death

Sometimes life is the tragedy
of a fly, caught in a cobweb -
awaiting its fate.

It's happening again,
a child of summer misplaced
in the dawn of autumn's anguish. 

All I want is to smell spring flowers.

My pen struggles to breathe,
in this downfall season of death,
yet the ink pours with the insecurities of rain.
Ten years later, memories remain,
as monotonous

Cobwebs

When the west wind blows wildly
And the winter seems too long
Will we all be tired and weary
To find wonder in the springtime song
