Arrows Anthology











{December 15, 2009}   Night

one of my 10minute poems = probably lots of things to improve on

Shadows and shapes
Magnified sounds
Stumbling through the dark
Sitting, resting with a friend
Silence is comfortable
Love and happiness radiate
Fingers intertwined
Whispering thoughts
Faces close
Bodies closer
Wishing this moment to last
Too quickly it is gone
A single beam of light
Disrupts our special time
Darting back
Into the darkness
I hope we find it again



{December 6, 2009}   Past, Present, Future

this is just something i thought of while walking last week.

Remember the Past.
Thats what its there for,
to learn from,
to improve on.

Accept the Present.
Take each day as it comes,
a gift,
a blessing.

Look forward,
To the Future.
Dreams may come true,
Wishes can be realised,

But don’t forget -
To live each day,
To live today.

{November 11, 2009}   Falling Like Rain

I’ve always liked walking in the rain,
and now Wisdom has revealed why.
Raindrops falling through the sky,
Falling on my hair,
Forever falling.
Clean renewal in the air,
It’s love trickling down my face,
It’s love flowing through my veins,
Capturing me in its power.
Love falls like raindrops upon the World,
And I’ve been waiting to find it.
Taking new paths,
Splashing in puddles,
Now I begin dipping into love’s reserviors
It has followed me thus far,
And still showers me with its gift.
Yes, Wisdom has revealed how love pours down.
And I finally understand,
Why I like walking in the rain.

mehhh it still doesnt sound quite right. the tie-up is unsatisfactory.
oh well >,< haha



{November 9, 2009}   Chameleon

Blending in
An art form
Indeed.
Expectations lay heavily
Masks, Characters
Attention diverted.
A blank face in the crowd
Forgettable,
Indistinct.
That is required
To survive.



{September 21, 2009}   Exam Poem #3
chirping, whistling,
children shouting,
joyfully playing,
shining sun,
green grass, blue sky,
 
Taunting.
Confined In A Room.
Artificial Light.
Silent Interrogation.
 
hot harsh sun cools,
short shadows lengthen,
butterflies roam the skys,
some birds tweet,
native birds sing,
 
Trapped.
In A Box.
Inside.
A Separate World.
 
finally finished,
relief from all,
outside we rush,
too late,
night has fallen.


{September 20, 2009}   Exam Poem #2
Bells signal the Beginning.
Torture.
The weather understands-
Gloomy clouds
A dark and grey world.
Rain drips off the bars
that fence us in.
One hour,
Two,
Wrists in agony,
Being shaken out,
Trying to buy relief.
Pens and pencils scratch the paper,
Furiously its crossed out again,
Frantically trying to finish.
Schools out for most,
Playground deserted.
Cleaner’s keys jangle,
“Pen’s Down”
Bells signal the End.


{September 19, 2009}   Exam Poem #1
Tick
            hurriedly claim our lots
            prime real estate gone quickly
Tock
            gazing out the window
            teachers scurry to class
Tick
            focus on the paper
            sun warming my face
Tock
            attention diverted outside
            children playing games on the field
Tick
            looking around the room
            pens write furiously
Tock
            leaning back to stretch
            finished in good time
Brrrrrrrring!
            freedom at last
            another four to go

so obviously an exam setting.. but thats all i could think about xD



{August 18, 2009}   At A Glance #5

Yesterday is no more
Look forward
The future is yours



{August 18, 2009}   Poem #3
A single touch
A close embrace
Both cautious and waiting
For each other to move.
Fearful and joyous
Silently shouting
The original hold is kept.
Now waiting for the other
To push away first
Hoping
That nothing will interupt.
Comfortable just being
With the other.
Yet
Too soon
A single word
Laughter from the outside
Distracts the mind
Breaks the bubble.
Masks are worn
Once again.
The truth just
A simple leap of faith
And
A wish of the heart
Away.

The latest creation. xD Just popped into my head >,> its quite long :O because of all the run on sentences and such.
