A Natural Progression

September 9, 2012 by paula 2 Comments

This is my Migraine Disease poem receiving an honorable mention in the “Putting Our Heads Together” poetry contest. Check it out:

A change on the horizon –

Colors streaming;

Cold, bright diamonds –

Facets gleaming;

 

Brilliant white prisms

Caught in the light,

Pinpoint shards

In my line of sight.

 

The tempo builds

In the cavity again;

Rising, repeating,

The pulsations begin.

 

The drilling, the boring,

To no avail;

Pressures seismic –

The crags impale.

 

The great cavern rocks –

It’s undulations increase;

Molten and hot –

The lava seeks release.

 

Clouds above

The dark rocks ascending;

Movement increases,

The waves – neverending.

 

What beginning, no end,

Time stands at attention;

The sun, the moon

Defy all redemption.

 

Soft stars appear,

The bright shimmers recede;

Vibrations release –

Willing to concede.

 

The rocks, the crags

Cliffs and all;

Movement ceases –

Their pressures fall.

 

Earth aligned,

The color returns;

Caressing, releasing –

The pulse no longer burns.

 

Giant plates,

Now dormant sustain;

Though caverns sleep,

Their pressures remain.

ABOUT ME

Joy

…We are all born with it–Joy. We exude enough of it as children to fill all the adult hearts in any room. We’ve no need to be taught how to smile on a sunny Saturday morning, dance in muddy spring puddles, delight as a butterfly alights on our noses. Joy is our birthright–our spiritual birthmark.
