Poem -
At All Costs
Her tempest ripped through cloudsย
Shredding sound into reams of scattered lightย
As raging winds scowled,ย
howled to be heardย
She...fearlessly harnessed
the scornful gasps of the pastย
Time purged into a cyclone of inverted massย
Colliding worldsย
Fragmenting the now into the ifsย
The heavens fell to her fingertipsย
as she searched for her prizeย
Determined to upriseย
All that had been lost along the wayย
Caring not for the costย
As she tore down the dayย

Thanks so much my friend. Always so grateful to hear your feedback ๐ x
Bloody hell Gwen, one of your best to date in my book. Fantastic writing...I felt the raw emotion rage and intent of the subject in the words you have written. The fact that I completely identify adds even more power to the read ...for me. A zillions stars lovely lady ๐๐
Wow Marion thanks for these amazing words and a kazillion hugs back atcha my friend ๐ xxxx
Sounds like she has more than just a little something in common with storm Eunice .. seriously tho' this is seriously good Gwen & then some .. trust me, I'm a clinical specialist :) x
Thanks Neville :) yes it has felt like my roof might fly off at times. Maybe Eunice influenced me a little. Thank you for your generous words my talented poetic friend xย
just you take care out there m'lady :) x
I want to be like her.ย
The strong, that can tear down the day.ย
Whole in a good way.ย
Totally get you my friend. It can feel like that is needed at times. I often say โI wish I had a Tardisโ Thanks for stopping by and leaving your fabulous words xย
Holy Crap G!!.......this is stunning in its raw might!!....I feel like you made the entirety of that accompanying picture "Come to life"......like your main entity was clawing its way from beneath the ground toย wreak havoc on the ALL!!....but in the poem's beginningย you speakย of the clouds and the raging winds so perhaps it'sย in the "Colliding worlds" where her anger is focused?.....regardless a prime example of mother nature's wrath playing out in the here and now!!......PINNED!!....excellent writing dear poet sister!!......LOVE & ROCKETS!!.......T xoย : )ย ย (kisses)
Yay Tony thanks for reading this one love. I am always so happy to find your words against my poetry :) Yes she is tearing down that day. Oddly enough I found e picture and then wrote the poem...so you dearest were spot on in your commentary. I do love how perceptive you are of me :) thanks for this xย
Phew! A powerful maelstrom of a poem conjured up, with chaos and disarray not forgetting absolute pandemonium all added for good measure.
All that's missing is the kitchen sink.
Great write Gwen and it could be interpreted as a woman scorned/revenge or perhaps Gaia, Mother Nature starting anew.
Whatever your inspiration, a potent poetic barnstormer of a write.
Superb!!
