Mutterings Poems

Premium MemberMuseless Mutterings

My mind is on red training wheels
Muse is gone and I’ve got a thrill
In writing about shouting daffodils 
Moving around never staying still

Lost in thought a fun place to be
With original parts wonderful dreams
The art of heavy hearts creating
The next Noah’s ark in valley green

And they’d say you’re manic and mad
Why build an ark in

mutterings
I see you in dreams,
those inconsequential things,
shaped in busy slumber.

I call to you - with
continual mutterings
- but do you listen?

Mutterings of a Senseless Soul

The mystical allure 
Of an island in the sun
Embraced by deepest waters 
Of sparkling sapphire blue
A tranquil sanctum
A secret retreat
A calling from within
Where one day two sweet lovers meet
And on this Isle their hearts entwined
Where promises and vows were made
A love eternal
A love divine
A love that stood the test of time

Now all alone I live

Premium MemberSimple Mutterings - ''It Is In Your Hands''

I was born innocent and my consciousness began,
     And from the beginning like everyone I have struggled;
Those baby cries were my first protests about my life,
             And as a child I thought I was eternal.

So many times during my

Premium MemberSimple Mutterings - Still I Weep

I enter gates that are rusty and old, worn with age,
     This eternal resting place fills my soul with sadness;
The time of year does not help, barren trees hanging low,
           Dried up flowers lay forlorn on rows of graves.

I followed a

a glass butterfly,
with transparent wings,
rests on a wet fern-
          oh such lovely things!

Premium MemberSimple Mutterings - Fate

It seems like I fell off the map on my life journey,
my path has been twisted and quite ferny;
    and beauty is concealed . . . 
I have learned to dip and dive in life's battlefield,
but this warrior of fate could use a shield;
        and

Premium MemberSimple Mutterings - 'If I Were An Elephant'

I was born at dawn near a wild stream cascading over rocks,
the first sounds I heard were birds chattering in the trees. So loud.
  It was quite a shock falling to the ground like that, gosh I was stunned
            then I felt something

Premium MemberSimple Mutterings -'The Butterfly In Me'

The day I found the butterfly in me,
I was changed forever to-  delighted.
  I found dancing where I could soar carefree,
      the butterfly and me are so united, that
        we twirl and swirl blissful,

Premium MemberSimple Mutterings - Writing Is Everything To Me

Writing,
    is everything to me!  It is my true passion-

MUSE found me, a lonely little girl weeping,
              with deep swirling words in my head
and in time, I wrote the words down. My thoughts fell, and
a writer was born

Premium MemberSimple Mutterings - the Nightingale

Oh, with great delight, from
out of the shadowy night, I hear
a loud, powerful melody drifting
    such a mournful song 
                  with a chant soul-stirring
a songster with whistles that crescendo
  trills, chirping, twittering and gurgles,

Premium MemberSimple Mutterings- the Hill Is Too High

life can be hard
it can slap a person down
suck out all hope(yes I 
should say me)

until I feel so small
and insignificant
my thinking con-
fused
and swirling

I just want to escape to tranquility
to quiet and deep
silence with no reason to speak
          alone

Premium MemberSimple Mutterings- Mourning

I held my baby
so perfect and very dead
and kissed his cold lips.
Till my last breath I will mourn,
my mourning shall shatter hearts.

I dressed him in blue
and laid him in sweet repose,
many passed with tears.
I had to let my boy go,
that parting haunts me ever.

Premium MemberSimple Mutterings - Only the Rain Answers

in my dream he watches and I feel his desire
his need and I fear it, yet something lures me 
I sense him in my dark room and feel confusion
it overwhelms me, I can hear his breathing close

he whispers my name, it comes violently like thunder
looking into his fathomless eyes I see love and hate
then his
