Sadness seeps in and
Covers my heart.
No reason, nothing has changed,
Maybe that’s the reason?
Ceiling fans hum and night moths
Flutter against the window glass.
Sweet violin music floats
Through my room and head
And brings me to a place
Of tears and beauty.
A classic combination that takes me
With it every time.
Please, shut it off, dry my tears
Turn off the light,
Set the moths free.
Awwwww… I hope it is just the poem which is sad, keep smiling my friend… we will set the fire moths free ❤

Beautiful. I can totally relate to the sadness. And yes, sometimes I don’t know why something hits me, but odd things trigger you to feel something you were unaware of, and I get that. Perhaps unfulfilled longing creeps up on us in the night….love you, xo

You know what Michelle, I feel that for each of your poem one will enjoy the meaning and beauty if it’s accompanied by meditation songs. Imagine playing a “nature song” for example and reading your poems, that would be a great experience.

I almost always have my meditation music playing when I write, it is the only way I can get into the mood, keeps my mind focused and blocks out all else. Thank you, as always, for your comments and for reading… your friendship is very valuable to me, 🙂 Michelle
