weaving a poem
last night,
i wove words
that got tangled up,
unraveling knots
takes forever though.
who knew?
please pardon the mess
i say to my muse
let me clean up some
so you relax a while
help me weave these words
back into
a poem
-Vidya/LadyInRead (for dVerse/Quadrille/Poem)
And I still am in the process of weaving words together for the ghazal, the moonlight definitely helps set the mood for that.
She was glorious
Even when eclipsed she shone –
Beautiful always
-Vidya/LadyInRead
February is National Haiku Month, so here is my first one for this month 🙂
Regarding the photo – I did not wake up early enough on the day of the trifecta; in fact, it was one of the first days this year that I slept soundly for about 5 hours at a stretch. And when I did wake up to lock the door up after my husband heading out on a trip, I realized that the lunar eclipse was still on for our part of the world. So I rushed out to the road. People were already heading out to work in their cars, and here I was at 6.45 am, on our otherwise quiet road, in my pjs with my camera looking for the best photo spot 🙂 The moon never fails to wow me, no matter how she is, and it was the same yesterday morning too. Here is one of those captured images.
In our case, the Supreme Being pulled the curtains down. All those clouds rendered our imagined views of a blue/red eclipse shattered.
oh:( that happened during the last super moon in 2017 for us – all clouded over..
Well, I am hoping to catch it fully the next time around – Jan 21,2019 in the US..
I love the moon! My first book, was about it, under a sneaky pen name. I find it so soothing! LOVE your poem and your words in honor of it.
Cool! is that book also listed in your blog ?:) will look for it
I like the idea that words can get into knots and the muse waiting for you to untangle them.
thank you Frank…sometimes it does feel like that.. 🙂
We were both reveling in messy poetry today.
thank you Judy, did read your messy poetry too ..
Looks like we both wrote about messy poetry today.
As a sometimes knitter, I have a deep appreciation for the tangled-up metaphor that parallels poetry writing so well. So glad you are here.
thank you Victoria, always glad to be a part of the dVerse community 🙂
Liked the haiku
