Upside down Inside out Under the carpet Out of sight Lift the carpet Bring in the light Life’s design Isn’t endless night ©moonbiscuitblog
Glow
Myka’s put up Glow in dark stars In our bedroom To let my brain know Where objects And doors are In the middle of Last night I got up Got completely lost As the stars Were all out of place Read More…
Tangled
Tangled twilight manes Eyes which speak of each star’s birth Hope’s mightiest steeds
Drag
Exhausted from lack of sleep Begging for peace and quiet My mind is dragging its feet Each step a mighty effort ©moonbiscuitblog
Paper Thin Skin
Their paper- thin skin
Decorated with purple
From every day living
Ma can’t feel the street
Under her feet any more
Won’t wear short sleeves
Fearing folk thinking
Pop’s beating her up
He’s not
Stubbornness and love
Keep them going

Edges
Life barrels along
Without us
Those thrown to the edges
Gasping for breath
Never knowing what hit us
Or why

Dragon Tales
Curled up on a cloud
Dragons recount ancient tales
Lightning sears the sky

Forgive?
He does love his mum
But she’s got a cruel tongue
And she hit him too hard
She hurt him physically
Along with his dignity
The punishment
Too harsh for the crime
He’s not forgotten
But has partially forgiven
Easier to forgive
As the years roll by
But from time to time
The inner child cries
Why me, why not the others
How come I got
The worst of our mother
Not all mums are angels
Some are just strangers
At home

Held on gentle wings
Caressing the midnight skies
Starlight guides her way
