Refraction Poems - Poems about Refraction

Refraction

In the ruin of 2020,
life shattered –
streets that once bustled,
now phantom,
ringing with the wail of sirens,
the weight of loneliness pushing down,
every breath a hint at what we lost.

Masks hid not only faces,
but the touch of an embrace,
conversations now murmurs from afar,
friendships frayed,
intimacy drowned out in screen static.
eyes aching with anticipation of the real.

REFRACTION

REFRACTION

When a meaning’s span has no breadth
Or even being superficial with no depth
Then any intrinsic value would be scarce
Perhaps with origins on different worlds
Yet even when they are barely glimpsed
Or simply imagined and merely dreamt
By thick mist and clouds one is engulfed
Any claims of understanding can be false
For clarity of perception, one is obliged
As from

The Refraction of Your Gaze

The Refraction of Your Gaze



The prism of your Rejection is held before me 

colors, breaking apart
to pierce my heart 
	with their meaning,
entering, 
	becoming:

the Violet of Penitence 
	though I seek not forgiveness
the Blue of Piety and Sadness
	the one color true
the Green of Faith and Envy
	my eternal hope and your selfish desire
the Yellow of Jealousy and Fear
	which

Seasonal Refraction

My being is a mirror of the cold.
Flows through me, like wind and mold.
Flakes that can fly, bite, and hold.
The beauty of clear winter evenings unfolded.
Snowfall is enhanced by the trees exposed. 
When lakes freeze, the kids shift to rink mode.
We omit each item from the scold.
However, we do not know what winter will hold.
This is

Water Car Refraction and Extraction

Valid, raw water is crucial for all faint life to a loader,
Stanley Meyer, Inventor of the 1970s Water Power Motor,
Rather than oil or gas, alive water might be properly used,
Cutting and cleaning may be done using kits water-based.

My write is alike a surge of water filling your glass,
Assuming you are flexible and decline to put

Prismatic Refraction

Delineation
By symbolisation
As the uttered word
Finds all hearts stirred
By the power of vibration
Coloured by their interpretation 
As of purity of their being
In resonation feeling
Marked by intent
With will bent
In surrender
In wonder
Co-creating
By experiencing
Stirrings in the heart
Wherein cognition starts
Anew at each given moment
Heightened by stillness quotient

- a Refraction Time -

Soon nature will change color
A refraction time
Autumn has the highest price
A goodbye to warm and bright days

The air is fresh and the forest is quiet 
The migratory birds leave us
and those who remain
have to prepare for a new cold season

Autumn shines in orange, red and gold
When the sun sweeps low over the landscape
it gives a

Refraction

I wanted this infatuation stone
perched on the fringe of a great unknown
wading into warm shallows called hope
my eyes out of tune with the murky shoal.

Reaching out with lusty intent
bumping infatuation over the ledge
wobbling down a trail of salty nonchalance
following like a drunken, big footed clown
leaving sunlight behind with each foolish stroke
into a deep blue ball

Glassy-Eyed Refraction

Glassy-Eyed Refraction

There was a sweet girl of pure glass.
Met a merry man with no class.
She’d shattered this bloke.
He drank til she broke.
Both attended funeral mass.

The Poets Refraction of Headline News

The bending light from the headline
News
As it enters my optic
Nerve
Resonates from eager
Fingertips
Coursing to my
Cortex
As the crisp crunch of
Paper
Crackles in self
Satisfaction
The pungent wisp of fresh
Paper
And strong
Ink

 Refracting morn's light
Aurora Borealis
Beauty touched spirit
Sunrays pierce trees through forest
Moment captured forever

Refraction

Though Time has dwindled me to motes,
My dust remains in sunset’s light—
A pattern faintly forms and floats
Discernible before your sight.

Indefinite and vague, yet there,
A wisp of what I was persists
Split-second long upon bright air—
Then vanishes in violet mist.

Hegelian Refraction

Expelled again from cosmic matters
The fool consults his satellite
Eager to shred to tatters
All ambition to fight
Structured tyranny
Rolling over
Civil minds
Without
Fear
