Clearance Lines
Inside the walk-in wardrobe
clearance lined the walls
shelves removed
unclutterd rails
a dead mouse in one corner
and a brush with a dusty pan
and out the other side
Isaiah

oops! sorry Janet-I was only referring you to laughter-with no intention of belittling this lovely poem

Ah yes Stef.. but you confused me with the reference because it really isn't relevant for this poem. Thank you for the explanation though :-)

hi again Janet-you mean to tell me you have never read the chronicles of narnia?(the Lion,the witch and the WARDROBE! my previous spelling of the lions name was meant to be pronounced in a posh way..h'aslan..lol!..Aslan-enjoyed the poem of course as I do with all your work-thank you-Stef-xx
Great imagery, full of innate ideas. There is a lot to know about Isaiah. A brilliant word; please elaborate just a bit. I can hardly believe you are the same writer as a year ago.

Thanks for comments.
I have to say I wasn't sure it could be acceptable as a poem. It's based on a visualized meditation which might give some idea of what it means to me personally.
I think the dead mouse reflects a part of me that is now dead. I suppose that in itself has several connotations. I left it there as a gentle reminder :-)
Isaiah is a loose reference to seeing the future (my future).
I decided not to elaborate on my vision. Let's just say the future looked bright :-)
