Fine China Cup (poem #423)

July 28, 2019 Alina H. Hansen Writer & Poet

A fine china cup,

only a few centuries old,

sits and waits for a drinker

or some tea. Dust gathers,

and time begins to erode,

the neglected fine china cup

chips, and cracks begin chiseling

its body. Empty of tea, and no

drinker in sight.


 

Thank you for reading!

A sunshine eye, opens

wide, bringing shattering

smackles of light, breaking

through the darkness and

lifting spirits high.

Hot Heat Rising (poem #421)

Hot heat rising,

sweat boiling, blood, flesh, bone

on pavement, wreckage

of twisted metal and plastic.

Steel, Snow and Isolation (poem #420)

July 15, 2019 Alina H. Hansen Writer & Poet

The sun moves, across a bitter front

of steel, snow and isolation. It does little

to warm and melt the hard life of the

men, women, and children.

Dreams (poem #419)

July 12, 2019 Alina H. Hansen Writer & Poet

The dreams of the night,

the soul alive in the heart

there are too many spaces

to occupy and not enough

minds.
