One’s spirit at ease
Flows as seaweed in the tide
Fear drowns in its fear

Gorgeous! ✨

Fallen leaves like flames
Crisp colors of a sun flare
A silkworm cocoons

Thank you 🙏🏽

the salt, slowly wringing dry, my soul
… so I swam parallel to the riptides
that once carried me out
to the point of maximum distance from self
Ashore, I landed
sent back to try again
in the land of the living

#poetry #poetrycommunity #emoetry #grief #transparency

having smelled the rot of death
within its belly once before,
I would not let it fool me twice consciousness eluded me
and I was pulled under
“for old times’ sake”
but always came the crash
the rogue waves
…decisions to be made
The searing sun
and birds of prey
hovered longer than I could dog-paddle

Ashore, I landed
air bubbles in the waters
the only sign of life:
damage from the breakers,
yet to be assessed
healing will be a lifelong endeavor
the sound of the surf
became my clarion call
self preservation,
my salvation; my grace
through Drake Passage
I ignored the lore of the Orca’s song

I was on hiatus I’ve missed this space and I’ve missed your deeply heartfelt and moving words! 🙏🏽💜💃🏽✨
