Prickly Needles (poem #433)

August 14, 2019August 5, 2019 Alina H. Hansen Writer & Poet

Prickly needles,

green body thick and dry

rooted in sand and rubble.

A lonely hawk circles above,

enticed by a scampering

shadow, he descends,

perching atop the

prickly needles.


 

Thank you for reading!

Sea void, swallow me

open ocean pull and break

the words ready to break

free from my mouth.

Leaf (poem #431)

August 12, 2019August 5, 2019 Alina H. Hansen Writer & Poet

A leaf spins in the wind,

caught and torn, it flutters

to the ground, resting,

it’s green body shimmers

in the light, already beginning

to diminish and die.


 

Thank you for reading!

Forgotten Memories (poem #430)

August 11, 2019August 5, 2019 Alina H. Hansen Writer & Poet

Holding onto the words

spoken and dreaming

in the quiet night

of the world, falling

into an abyss of

forgotten memories.


 

Thank you for reading!

Golden Package (poem #429)

August 10, 2019August 5, 2019 Alina H. Hansen Writer & Poet

Golden package,

materials combustible

silvery lining, colors

robust. Describe to

me your contents,

tell me your

artificial lies.


 

Thank you for reading!
