Tina Mckeon Poem
A quilt of snowfall
Interrupts my peaceful sleep
Rest comes into Spring
Blackened clouds looming
Determination of sun
A battle of wills
Rebellious bird
Early spreading of its wings
Mother close behind
Lone apple remains
Dangling a fragile branch
Protesting Winter

Tina Mckeon Poem
Quiet as a butterfly
Not buzzing like a bee
That is my preferred entrance
For society to notice me

Tina Mckeon Poem
The relentless
don't settle for quiet
when their creativity
is blossoming.
They may encounter
crevices and falter.
Yet, their soul
will corrode any
indifference.

Tina Mckeon Poem
Dreams bloom
from simple wonders.
They dance,
staring with desire.
Standing-
at a distance-
is reality.

Tina Mckeon Poem
I get lost in my disguise
Humanity stares with inquisitive eyes
Shall I reveal my true identity?
Drop the mask, so they can see
To take such risk, could elicit danger
Perhaps, its best to remain a distant stranger
How ambiguous I feel of the path to travel
Not desiring my camouflaged existence to unravel

Tina Mckeon Poem
Turn out the light
Be at peace
Allow romance's air to warm you
Commit all that resides of body and soul
Rejoice in the music of unification
Allow fear not to deny you of pleasure
This precious gift bestowed upon many
Yet, each encounter beholds its own story
Let not darkness overcast the light within you
Cherish the moment after lying in wait
Never look back with regret
Be proud to be a woman

Strength
Unraveling
Realizing that
Reaching
Eternal bliss
Nevertheless means
Deciding to
Embrace
Reality

Tina Mckeon Poem
Again
Again...
I feel no arousal
Nor in love
Nor hate
Again...
I permit his feast
upon my flesh
But why?
Again...
I verbally proclaim “no”
My feeble attempts
elicit surrender
Again...
I harbor the regret
Burden of shame
Priciest weight
Again...
I camouflage my sin
Playing an imposter
Doting wife
Again...
I declare to cease
Like an addict,
I lie

Tina Mckeon Poem
Freedom lies
in a reckless dance.
So I spin,
flailing my arms.
Feet thud
across a hardwood floor
Scream out loud,
reveling in liberation
Forcing myself
to shed my interior
Scratching my flesh,
I bleed to release.
Finally spent,
my rebirth has dawned.

Tina Mckeon Poem
Today you extended the invitation
My wait had stretched far and wide
Now as we stand among the midnight hour
You state to no longer hide
The sky is ignited with shimmering stars
I am engulfed by romance's air
Finally allowed to stare into emerald eyes
Lightly stroke your strawberry hair
I do not fret upon what altered your mind
Not eager to waste precious time
Will revel in the gift bestowed upon me
Allow the music of love to chime
Eventually, I will wear out my welcome
Happily, I vow to depart
Tears will not lead to sleepless nights
For now I answered the cries of my heart
