Seasons Poems

Covid -19

The air is filled with laughter
Children playing happily in the street
It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood
Parents watching - it's kind of neat

Like a scene from It's a Wonderful Life
The days of old appear to have returned
It looks like...Read More

Spring is here at last.
The first buds struggle to rise.
A sudden freeze comes.

The new buds wither.
Birds seek shelter from the cold.
Spring in Alberta.

Temperatures vary
Warm, cold, freezing in one day.
Never a dull moment here.

There's nothing that thrills me like the feeling,
When into my mind the words come stealing,
Of thoughts and dreams of long ago,
Of songs and seasons and new fallen snow.

How sunlight sparkles on waters calm,
And the feel of a breeze on warm...Read More

We are the loafs
From China to Chile
No matter the seasons 
We never change

We are the loafs
We don't beg to be something else
But the loafs
No matter the oven in use

Poets polish leather letters with feather fingers
Every word wild like the waves of the ocean
Passionate paragraphs parade with clingers 
Full moon highlights heights of heavenly motion 

Misty movement that marks the poem’s destiny 
Gossamer souls swim interweaving with words
Watercolor waterfalls...Read More

"dust scent through cold trampled field 
whilst butterflies hung by their wings to dry"  

- 'Time lost all realism'  

I've surveyed the road from 'time' to 'time' and saw Savoir-Vivre.
I will never be that woman; I've tied goats...Read More

One

When the people of the four winds
	Gather

They speak with one voice
 A rumbling
Deep and resonate
		A constant unbroken union
Rising – falling
 Neither bass nor alto
  Modulating
As one 
	Soaring
		Song 
In the rhythm of one heart
	Beating
		Beneath the multi-colored mantle
			Of one world;
	
When the...Read More

Alone… would I be wrong to call myself a fool?
Knowing full well, alone one never is?

Better, much better to say
‘Alone from’.

Alone from friends, from loved ones
From employment, joy and/or satisfactions.

Even then… perhaps not?
 
Maybe instead we are just visiting a...Read More

I’m weary of this winter and it’s chill
that wraps around me tightly like a glove
and robs my aging spirit of its will
while leaving lonely heart devoid of love.

I’m tired of hibernating in my lair
as never ending darkness lingers on,
and locked...Read More

POEM " SMILE UP THAT SUNSHINE " by martin gedge

Smile up that sunshine and let your flowers grow
bask under the bluest skies and sparkle in it's glow
wind to whistle through the trees to dance without a care
for everything is beautiful...Read More

Beaches are alive with the sounds of waves 
Crashing down and people sunning getting brown
Picking up using its watery hand to give a cruise to the granular of sand 
It is time for summer warmth and to go forth 
Outdoor...Read More

When with closed eyes in Autumn's eves of gold-
I drift to thinking all about that Fall-
where our young daughter moved in Florida
to find a job she loved and could uphold.

We live up North where seasons are fourfold;
come Autumn- Summer's green...Read More

I didn't realize it at then 
        But now I know 
        Do you know that? 
        How beautiful...Read More

Times such as these test body soul and mind
So should our thoughts be pain and dark confined
Or loosed to concentrate on brighter things
Like furry puppies, flowers and girls on swings

In this bright morning sun as I roved out
Past village houses...Read More

Another day
   so long before,
A little time
   turned quickly more.

The seasons changed,
   days, weeks, a year.
From little boys
   two men appear.

I heard a new term today,
slow sighed Earth's River,
"spiritual intelligence."

I have become flowingly familiar
with cognitive intelligence,
before that emotional intelligence,
before that contextual intelligence,
similar to climate intelligence
throughout life's tributaries,
branches
and root well-springs.

My waters do not claim these are strengths;
more familiar as effluent opportunities
for...Read More

silence! (give me breath!) Revised

these days silence just hangs there, sole fruit of my mind
though my branches drop tendrils, dream thoughts, some new word,
a Saint’s prayer touched might help some truth see daylight,
life sustained in some way (hope’s vain sharing...Read More

Warm winds sweep the land of snow 
where patches of green grass show.
And the ice Queen ends her reign
as Her cold spells ebb and wane.

Buds bloom on both bush and tree
ice breaks up and creeks flow free.
With each dawn the...Read More

Budding flowers in the sun
capturing hints of spring air
Alas, the drumming cadence
of the Woodpecker...Read More

Last night was the first time in 14 years that I've cried, 
I've had many deep feelings all that I've kept bottled up inside .
Last night was all I could take my heart has finally broken enough times that I'm...Read More

During the Fall I see leaves on the ground...

In the Summer the Sun shines in the sky
And during the night the Moon sparkles shy…

In the Winter all seems wet: fields and cities.
The snow coppers the valleys and mountains
And the world...Read More

The Power of One

Slowly shadows devour the day’s light,
The silhouette of fear draws breath 
From the soul left gasping,
A firestorm of fury gathering,
Like mists of plagues escaping
From an ancient land of sand and tombs
With locusts warning of hope’s starvation
To escort...Read More

The lady down the lane
Kept daisies by her windowpane

Clad in sun splashed coveralls
Her hair, a silver waterfall

Proudly she wore her bluebell bonnets
As she composed her floral sonnets

We would smile a shy hello
Her name, I never got to know

Now - dusty...Read More
