I envy the wind which drifts where it will doing natures bidding. In contrast the nearest i get to being the wind is passing it and theres this awful smell.

Good words on nature SC, it can be so wonderful to be with it.

A baby hare came onto the croquet lawn last week and I go with a couple of yards of it, beautiful creature.

I had lost my inner muse once...I wasn\'t even able to express what exactly I felt back then.... But today I think I finally got a good explanation for my misery!!
Very well done Sax!

Good write, S.C.
We ebb and we flow. The sun doesn\'t rise the earth rolls down we just can\'t feel it that way.

Saxon Crow,

Youā€™re truly a messenger of what we all have felt at some time or other.
Your ā€œsimple reflection of all thatā€ youā€™re feeling is inspirational.

And yet in feeling nothing, you\'ve felt everything so small!

Fantastic work, yes an ink addiction still has its flaws. When I just can\'t sleep and need to write a bit more.

So many elements - some of which made me smile with recognition, some sigh with resignation.
You got the inevitable complexity just right Sax. Thanks.

This is a pattern I can only hope I created with my little crew but my upbringing was for from the delight of just bad!

Still we get the lessons we get and all the better to enjoy your words with!

Much appreciated
Keep it real

War of Contrition
L. B. Mek said:

(really sorry for hijacking your comment section, dear poet
I was just inspired by your words
and couldn\'t control my overzealous nature,
I meant no disrespect by doing so)..
some people delight at an ice cream treat
others shake their head in bewilderment
at how sugared milk - frozen
can improve someone\'s mood;
science went and explained it all
used words like dopamine hits
to validate its mood swing effects;
but we forget
there was a time - before,
when milk and sugar, was only
for kings and queens
and their aristocracy feeders,
while people\'s lives were valued by
their muscles or weapons
or the power to make other\'s wield
those oppressive resources
for a name or banner;
in those days, some inked words
shared - freely, was all people had
to believe that they had something
more: to aim for, in life;
now fast-forward a few centuries
and we all own, handbag sized guns
with silencers thrown-in for free
but expect \'civility\' to insure
nobody uses them: on us - righteously;
a time where
humanity\'s fallible - fingerprints
has distorted all-things goodness
in what was once
our theological appeasement of life,
now people scream and hate a deity
they don\'t believe-in, absurdly?
while the Pope rides
a gold bulletproof Rolls Royce, accompanied
by motorcades, armed
with those all-important donation boxes
a 10% minimum premium, of all you earn
your price of inclusion, non-negotiable for entry
into your miraged depiction of heaven,
and Ayatollah\'s fight democracy
for modernity\'s truly empowering capacity
to wield Nuclear bombs, freely;
and the Jews, as always
spend their day-to-day, counted-out existence
plotting an economical path
to their continued survival,
cursing the day
they ever shared, \'their God\'
with such an ungrateful world...

dusk arising said:

A huge con instigated and perpetuated by the christian churches to subtly place the believer in their emotional control.
Once a person frees themselves from christian doctrine and accepts the natural spirituality within us all then the truth begins to dawn if one lets it.
Your poem is a good expression of the guilty opressive burden christianity, be it protestant or catholic, places upon every innocent soul it captures - usually from tender years.

\'your silence\' says it all, Sax - why do you bother?
Great write but too many words for me; however who knows, it might get someone else ....thinking?

\'The waters rise up from the deepest sea
To wash away the best of me
But the current of life within this body
Creates a tidal wave of deeper courage\'..
an empowering message, thanks for sharing
