Bold & Silent
I turned the volume down so I could hear you.
Everything is still too loud.
Too many voices, and not the one I needed to hear.
I want to hear.
Mourning that lasted for nine hundred sixty four days.
Salty tears soaked waterlogged greenery.
Droopy head. Droopy leaves.
Pruning a root bound plant
Repot.
Acclamation felt like dormancy
Dormancy was intense

Fire
Fire,
In the form of Flame,
Is a mother's touch,
Calm, Gentle, Warm,
The same Fire,
With circumstances,
Changes,
Raging, Ravaging, Revolting,
Learn from Fire,
To be a caressing mother,
For Good,
And be the destroyer,
For Evil,
Ignite your Fire,
Within.

Aren't Trees Alive?
All those pretty hues,
Of green amongst the blues,
Their long brown feet?
Blossoming the ground beneath.
Oh! The tremendous trunk,
Its arms in every direction,

Fruity freshness our heart devours,

3 x more haiku about Change
Leaving you behind

Dreams of the past flow,
Backward rolling streams of thought,
Driving us ahead.

Flame-Licked Heels
I’ve been working on
Coming back from
The dead
Realising reality
Living in this world
Becoming me
I don’t have to know who I am
But I must know that I am
I am, I am, I am
I don’t have to know what I am
To deserve to be
I’m working on being,
Just being
Because I’ve been existing
Mindless, automatic, numb
Best autopilot, me
Coming back from the dead
