Rubber Ducky Poetry Hour

[mythy]

I had covered some miles that night in December
I remembered the warmth of the fires glowing embers'
then up through the dark an old man appeared
limping quite badly, with eyes full of tears,
in a flowing white robe, and a long straggly beard,
I called out a greeting, he could not have heard.
Then in the distance a clock struck the hour
it's luminous face clear in the tower,
and I turned to the place where I'd seen the old man,
but I was too late the old year had gone.

The air is chilly in
This early morning
The fog clings to the ground
As my feet pick out the path
That they know so well
My breathe crystallizes in the air
Showing the proof of Winter clinging
Sun peeks through the trees
Brightening up the snow and ice
That still lingers
A beam of sunlight falls upon
My face causing me to smile
My body fills with warmth
My feet begin to move faster
Darting in and out of the trees
In a hurry to reach my destination
I break through the trees
Into a clearing on a cliffside
To meet the Dawn in all her glory
To soak up her morning rays
To give thanks to the Mother
For all that she has given us
Seen and Unseen
Blessed Be to all of Mothers Creatures

They dance and jump
up and down the hall
but they always come back
whenever I call

They are the best friends
I know they're sincere
they would never upset
or cause me a tear

They come in all colours
and are rather unique
I call them socks
and they go on me feet.

Letters across the screen
Their meaning questionable
Serious or humorous
So hard to tell

People losing their ability
To discern between a joke
And a matter of sincere importance
Because these are letter across the screen

We don't talk to one another anymore
We don't hear each others voices
We are just letters on the screen
Ambiguous at best

At one time we thought
The internet brought us closer together
But in my opinion
It drives a gigantic wedge between us

Because we are just letters across the screen
My humor is questionable
My thoughtful thoughts are perceived as banter
You have confused my intent

I am tired of these letters on the screen
I want to hear voices again
I want to shake hands once more
I crave human contact, not the internet

[PoeticWitch]

It was just a few days
Without you
But it felt like eternity
Without you

I lay in our bed
Without you
I dreamt every night
Of how you weren't by my side

I missed you my love
More then you can ever know
I barely slept
Without you by my side

I would watch t.v.
To distract me from your absence
I would laugh at A.F.V
Turn to you to ask if you saw that

But you weren't by my side
My head cannot imagine life without you
My heart will not beat properly without you here
My soul is not complete without you with me forever more

So my love, here are the rules
We are never allowed to spend even one night
Without the other
For Soulmates should never be parted

[PoeticWitch]

As I lay myself down to sleep
I wonder what might I dream tonight
Of far off lands
And strange beasts I have never seen
Of my daily stresses
And all the bills I have to pay
I want to dream of a ship
A ship to carry me off
To worlds only imagined
Where princes and princess truly exist
And magic is a daily occurrence
So as I lay myself down to sleep
I pray that I dream
Of love, light, and laughter
To dream as if I was a child once more
To believe that miracles still happen
Lets leave the mundane world
Where it belongs
And let my dreams be dreams

[PoeticWitch]

Do you dream..
Of what has come and gone..
Or of what has not yet happened..

Do you dream..
Of silliness and laughter..
Or of darkness and terror..

Do you dream..
Of planets and stars..
Or of beaches with waters so blue..

Do you dream..
Of clouds so fluffy and white..
Or of storm clouds raining on your parade..

Do you dream
As I dream
That some dreams might come true
