day by the water
soaking up rays
reflections
calming
blue dreamy skies
ready to face the uncertainty
of the unknown

Stonehedges of the old age
Migrants of passage
Brave pilgrims of the unknown
Lost paradigms of the blown

Premium Member The Fog A 25 words poem

Driving in the fog
Is like to travel 
Into the unknown
We do not know where
We are going
its like the unknow
Its scary

That Prose

That prose
of a woman knows
That feeling 
goes into her toes
When the weight of
her living goes
into the unknown
prose.

Chasing Ghosts

Dating vague memories
Voice from the distant past
Do I dare brave the unknown?
Am I chasing dreams
Or am I chasing ghosts

Open Wounds

Sutures of connection,
words tightly sewn

Seaming together
—closing the unknown

Leaving behind dreams
Memories and known places
Flew in a cold eve
Embracing the unknown fate
Searching for new dreams and hope

Inspiration

loosed in its fury

violent thrash in splendor

secure the path is

never to return homeward

the unknown will keep him warm

Lakota Psalm

The white wing of the wind
blew down from tomorrow

Carrying a message of hope
—from beyond the unknown

(Dreamsleep: August, 2020)

Deeper Down

To deny yourself true happiness out of the fear of the unknown, only supresses you farther into the darkness.
Let go,
Sway,
Start anew.

Loss
Of what
We have known
Forced to adjust
Within the unknown
What will happen?
To us all 
In these
Times

Puzzle of Life

Nothing lasts forever,
         even the laughter fades
            before the crying...
         Only the unknown
            remains... !

The River

Poetry is written
when we feel a sense of wonder about
the unknown,
confusions,
indifference
far from ourselves
because it is like light.

Premium Member Ho Hum Hands

Warm flames rekindled,
that smoke’s been absent too long. 
Jumpstart ho hum hands. 
Be seduced by the unknown, 
embrace the colors that change.

Premium Member Sea

The sea
is a giant under-world
where the unknown calls out
waiting to be discovered
in the depths containing dimensions of treasure
and mystery

The Unknown

I visited the great unknown,
But now I can’t remember
The look of it.
What a tragedy it is
To jump unknowing.
How greatly I admire the unafraid.

The Unknown

some things are so beautiful
that the soul so sensitive  stops
nothing else matters
for here is a touch of the unknown
felt but never to be known

Wanting

Wanting…
Fills up time and clutters my mind.
Make me happy, I don’t like waiting.
The unknown hurts.
Not knowing my heart – the worst pain of all.
