RV Poetry

Your Life, Perhaps?

paper dolls
twilight moon
spoon fed gravy
call of the loon

army men
rattan hills
spoon fed oatmeal
call of the Jills

childhood once
a-dult-hood
spoon fed carrots
ideas, should

circles lean
squares collapse
spoon fed words
a heart’s relapse

When storms loom and paths change and more storms threaten and paths again play games, adrenalin surges built up wreak havoc in the calm that overruns the storm and that’s my excuse for excessive posts and I’m sticking to it. Wonder if I will have any adrenalin left when I really need it?

Absorption


She stands quiet
absorbing the wind
enjoying the silence
of those merely not home
ignoring the shuttered windows
of those no longer living

it is a moment
of peaceful release
of confident anticipation
of shared power with crashing waves

small plane circling
pilot unseen
is but a soothing distraction
of colors and sound
yet cars driven by
are a reminder
of movement in life

the sliver of a moon above
joins forces with lamps
in partial shroud
to allow vision
of once quiet waters
showing unexpected force

she stands quiet
absorbing….

I posted I was tired of signing as MeeAugraphie; it is true, but because my poems come from within with out planning, I suppose my signature should come from the same place. So, be they signed MeeAugraphie or Marcia McLees Bogaert, they are from within me. Perhaps, someday I will see the pattern and understand the why of instinct - at least my own.

I still believe the words I wrote last year. Click on the globe if you are a new reader, please, I would love to share them with you. As RVers, you have already most likely found a bit of inner peace and seen things in your own country that average people caught up only in their own communities don’t get the chance to see. You have also seen more of others helping others judging by many of your blogs. You are aware that one person can make a difference. You have seen movements grow.

No, I am not an RVer yet, but I am paying attention to what you are sharing.

Mimi’s most recent post summarizing all her research this past month on wars is found here: Dona Nobis Pacem ~ A Revolution of Words.

Many links for other writers on peace are found there. Perhaps reading some of them will take your thoughts on peace in a different direction, one of can do, rather than frustration and hopeless? It is hard, it is going to be hard, but one step at a time will make a difference to someone. It has to.

When does planning for the future cross the line and be seen as living in the future?

When does living in the present become failure to move forward?

When does living in the past become a stagnated future?

No, I won’t tell you…
I mean, I shouldn’t tell you…
But then maybe I should share, at least, something.

It doesn’t cross over when someone else says it does.

It only crosses when you think it does.

Of course, that requires you pay attention.
Let’s not go there today.

That requires thinking for ourselves.
And I’m sure we’ve already done that once today…

Or, was that last week?
