Moonlight, Summer Moonlight

by Emily Bronte

'Tis moonlight, summer moonlight,
All soft and still and fair;
The solemn hour of midnight...

Ragged Edges

by Karen Elaine Greene

borders

distorted and untidy

unravel quickly

as thread pulled gently 

from unfinished hems

no shame in the disheveled

unwrap your gifts 

and share them

like stars wait patiently 

to be unhooked 

and thrown free

People Who Live 

by Erica Jong

People who live by the sea
understand eternity...

another piece from my poetry collection Three Thousand Doors.

Forgiveness
by Karen Elaine Greene

It's about forgetting...
No.
It's about letting go.
Unlocking the anger
and allowing it to have its day,
closing that door
and moving into the future.
Little beads of hope
like raindrops
falling in the ether,
cleansing the soul,
renewing the heart,
breaking through stone barriers...
washing memory clean.

Day 189 - I love...poetry day 7

This is one of mine...from my collection Three Thousand Doors.

Wild Grass

by Karen Elaine Greene

I am the wind charging through you

disturbing crisp leaves on a fresh autumn morning. 

I am the phoenix risen from the ashes.

Burst into flames

scatter

rise again.

I am the butterfly wandering from flower to flower

unaccustomed too settling long on one blossom or

    another.

I am the grass that grows wild at the fence.

I will not be tamed; shaped into some pattern.

I am yours to treasure for a time

until my roots grow soft and I drift away

with the wind I am forever disciple to. 

Day 188 - I love...poetry day 6

i carry your heart with me

by e e cummings

my heart)i am never without it...
