Roots Beneath My Soles
Resilient I am, to be here, to stand as tall as a sunflower. I can hear the cacophony of cicadas outside my window sing with me through my grief. Their trill reminds of blooming chances. As sunlight slips through, rays of gold ripple over my skin like a whisper of comfort, their warmth sinking into my...

Premium Member In a world that touches my soles like a lost whisper
In a world that touches my soles like a lost whisper, I wander through realms where light is a never-ending rainbow, And I wish to rise with the sun in its golden carousel, To become a ray dancing on the edges of eternity. I see the white foam, a bridal gown wrapped in blue waves, And I wish to tie...

Lost Soles
One evening as I walked my dog I came across a pair of shoes Lying there beside a log Not exactly breaking news Still I couldn’t help but wonder Who would ditch their size sixteens Did they hate the rainbow colors Or the oddly random seams? Or perhaps some bozo missed them These huge and homely shoes I’d found And rather than dismiss them There I...

Skeptical Swollen Soles
skeptical swollen soles tracing dark toes on vying veins of tactic trains: lofty lousy limbs etched in ink drastic dances dripping on seeps scrunching in jumpy jolly mystic melody birthed embroidered with will virtuoso concerto crunching sumptuous soles stretching la-de-da limbs lurching. 19:12:29:09:27...

Do Shoes Go To Heaven As They Have Soles
What would i ask my soul What words would plaster over cracks and cuts that binds it together Where can i find it for when i look inside echoes of my sight rebound And if it could be found would it turn around Ignore my pleadings to be healed Soulless creature forced to watch with empty jealous eyes...

From Soles To Souls
Yesterday I saw my worn out sole The blue shoe has been housed in a bag of dust for long I packed it like an old gift And followed the path to the cobbler But times have changed Mr old lanky cobbler no longer mend soles 'I have a new calling', he told me...

Soil of Your Soles
“Soil Of Your Soles” Descending to the darkness beneath the dirt we call Earth Disappearing from the eyes that asked so many questions Becoming forgettable as if my life never existed at all It’s nothing new to feel alone for I have been my entire life Lowering myself into the vast abyss unknown to those without Securing my dark box surrounding...

Under the Bare Soles
whether you'll write just one address on the road never guessed. When would it raises sharp pointed exactly on bare soles this was still yesterday we stand in the midst of the fire you ignite.

Kindred Soles
I just can’t find the words, To ease the pain you feel. Please know that you are not alone, And somehow time can heal. My heart, how it breaks for you, As tender teardrops fall. We may never have the answers, To understand it all. When everything around you crashes, The roots of faith are tested. Yet, beneath a devastated land, The seeds of love are...
