The horror of the film frightened me
Favorite dad was the bad guy
I was terrified to earn
May never sleep again
Unexpected twist
Wide awake now
Scared to death
Nightmare
Damn!
When the princess kissed the frog on the lips,
her heart burst in three painful double skips.
Then she sank to the floor,
dead as a nail in a door.
Yep ~ that's how they do fall sometimes ~ these chips.
Silence shutters in through the fresh air
streaked windows painted in despair
star struck visions seek the light
hidden inside the distant night
-----------------------------
Smoke-filled eyes blink
gasps trying to think
a whisper heard
no just a bird
-------------
so missed
a twist
sighs
why

-
Fear not, doubt's dark whispers,
embrace the testing ground.
We face the same old existential dreads -
the unexpected twist, the vague essay prompt.
Genial birdsong mocked our anxious morning
and squirrels still scampered unconcerned.
“You’re a beautiful bundle of stress,”
I assured Lisa this morning
as I handed her her water bottle.
Things that make us nervous
Vary, each of us unique
In what can cause a racing heart
Or sweat or tears to leak.
A lack of time to be prepared,
Results of tests or scans,
An unexpected twist of fate
To mess up all our plans.
Being forced to face a fear
That freezes us inside;
Having to confront a truth
That’s always been denied.
There are those who never feel
Anxiety; I’d bet
That if they do exist, they aren’t
People I have met.
I look into his baby blue eyes,
A young man now standing before me.
My heart sees a little boy
To protect.
Shielding him from the cross I carry,
The pain of losing one of my babies,
Living my remaining days
In honour of those left behind.
Shielding him,
Protecting him
From life’s unexpected twist of fate.
Shielding him,
Like a mama bear,
Fiercely holding on.
Pointing to the rainbows,
To the pot of gold.
Shielding him
With love.
