Vice Versa #11

Mary at  Poets United challenged us to write a poem,  with the words unique/ordinary and
condemn/praise.   She picked some great words for this challenge....

Ordinary Chronique 6by *BenoitPaille

 

Uniqueby ~Marsilea

 

 Umbrella shadows my saturated blue day yet

I see shadows engraved like diamonds through the radiant sun

My daily walk, my chores, my ordinary view of whiteness and concrete

 blurs the lines

 but at night I hear the stars whispers as they fall 

Their final dance a wish to dream on

Stacks of books to read, words to write, tests to study for

I feel condemned by a bland manilla world

my unquenchable curiosity is awaken by a poem

the words twist and turn like branches

hope is tucked in them, like green buds

their green veins extend and reach my heart and I feel 

the words come, they arrive like a fresh rain

 I so hope someone else sees my world 

and gives me praise

for seeing beyond the ordinary
