SHADOWS

Ninkasi

Fluttering piles of yesterday 

meander into my today

and coaxed trails of imagination

decipher sleepless bundles of

echoing  thoughts

 

rummaging through my childhood maze

painted in primrose and chilling 

burnt sienna

 

gliding whiff of coarse wind

chimes into my childlike whims

gyrates like blue butterflies

into suitcases peppered in memories

    That's the problem with yesterdays, they always seem to stop you moving on. A bit like recycling, it just comes back as something different.

    I'll just say that this is breathtakingly lovely. It is gauzy and sounds so haunting when read aloud. This is what poetry can be!

    if those first two are anything to go by, I think I and a whole bunch of other folk here are gonna get along like a house on fire ... Neville

    The essence of shadows that meander in memories is so expertly penned in this gem of a piece. Welcome to MPS and hope to read more of your work Ninkasi.
