Locking Up

Darkness now
For far too long
Vacant streets
Some windows amber and blue
Most dark and shuttered

He locks up
With a willful hope
A dream from another life
From another time

Perhaps the children
Will still be awake
With their sparkling eyes

So he hurries home
On a wish and a prayer

Even a drowsy hug is a tonic

Entangled, Squamish, British Columbia, Canada

Entangled ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #176

Entangled in dreams and traumas
Is my heart betrayed
By actions driven
From deep inside
The darkness
Unplumbed
So
Finally do I
Enter the dark
Holding the light
Of my broken heart
To heal the injuries
And discover the truth of dreams

The Dreaming

Light and colour dreaming
Resplendent core
Emboldened heart
Beyond these dreams, I soar

Beyond the Mountains Blue, Howe Sound, Sea to Sky Gondola, Squamish, British Columbia, Canada

Desire

Where the filtered sun
Casts mountains blue
Across this deepest valley
Beyond a distant shore
The clouds so busy gathering
While here the skies so clear

But there I know she waits for me
Climb down, then sail, then climb again
Enwrapped within her arms
Perhaps by then the rain will come
Reverberant charms upon the tin
In rivulets down window pane
Lay with her in such sweet refrain
Flames crackling in the hearth

I feel the heat
Hot on my flesh
Alas it’s but the sun
It fuels a fire
Within my heart
Upon this rocky bluff
