in this time
of wars and disasters
eclipsing other horrors
today’s rain and thunder
seems only fitting
I am glad to huddle indoors
sadly, to huddle indoors
only seems fitting –
today’s rain and thunder
not eclipsing other horrors:
the wars, the disasters
of this time
A double cherita, written for dVerse Meeting the Bar: A revisit with the Cherita. (The cherita is meant to tell a story; I hope this almost plotless piece qualifies!)
I am Rosemary: pensive yet pungent.
I am ardent poet / sacramental healer /curious witch
lover of cats, trees and the ocean.
I am 81
and not out
yet.
A cherita for Day One of April Poetry Month, using both the Poetic Asides prompts and Kerry O'Connor's word list @skyloverpoetry on Instagram. (A cherita is traditionally untitled, but I like to use first line or part thereof to identify my untitled poems.)
Prompt: An introduction poem.
Words: pensive, pungent, ardent, sacrament, curious.
Linking to poets and Storytellers United: Writers' Pantry #65. (Apologies to those who have seen this already on Instagram / facebook.)
