I. Darkening of the Light
Holding onto this hope
In inevitable failure
I surrender my own ego
As I contemplate my skill
Darkening into night
The force of fire lingers here
II. Containment of Potential
My vision is set ablaze
In breezes from poets I love
A tenuous flame that catches
This page of my poetry
To reveal hidden mountains
As hope disperses the clouds
.
Absolutely beautiful. And speaks deeply to other writers. To and with and of other writers.
Here’s a virtual rose for you. 🌹
This poem is one deep breath. Surrendering to live and take in a lungfull of air.
