Stumbling in the Dark

Stumbling in the Dark

                                                     I am like dandelion seeds  
                                                     briefly drifting about
                                                     and fragile as glass slippers
                                                     roaming the earth round and round…
                                                     What to believe?
                                                     Which way does the truth go?
                                                     If I only knew,
                                                     I wouldn’t be (like the woodpecker)
                                                     half-asleep!
                                                     The ground is a little slippery,
                                                     I might tumble into mud.
                                                     Which road do I take?
                                                     How do I correct a mistake?
                                                     Two questions,
                                                     and not even one answer to be found.
                                                     I keep roaming the earth
                                                     round and round…
                                                     Still in frog pyjamas.

Hello Bernadete, I was the first one commenting on your beautiful poem and I got no thank you. I’m so angry, I’m almost mad. ❤️ M.

I take & get the point you make here .. I also thank you for the unexpected chuckle at the image of a frog in jim jams dodging a plummeting half awake woodpecker .. Neville

What have you described here? Humanity maybe, all of it, every single soul who exists. Each seed occasionally landing in a temporary bliss or horror before being blown away again. I'm blown away by this,

Such is reality for each of us. So many doors to choose.
Well done.

Who Discarded the Red Rose?

A contemplation of my early poem Who Crushed the Yellow Rose

Who discarded her heart

after the storm has gone and passed?...
