Dimensions
Yesterday,
the leaves of autumn
were vibrant hues of
orange, yellow, red and burgundy.I wish you could have seen them, too.
Today,
the fallen leaves
are brittle shades of
brown, brown, brown and brown.I wish you could mourn them, too.
Tomorrow,
the trees of winter
will be skeletons for
colorful dreams and future joy.I wish you could share them, too.
Sylvia Edwards
Sometimes the pit is so black. Losses
The splash of red rage,
The flash of yellow fear,
The dash of orange pain
abate the terrors.Sometimes the pit is so black.
Then all I can do
is curl up in the depths,
close out the bleak
and deny the void.Some times the pit is so black.
Sylvia Edwards Tears
oozing
puddles
of pain
one
by one
drops
fall
releasing
anger,
anguish,
agony.as the
bitterness
seeps out
what will
creep in?
new love
pleasure
or joy?I think
I hope
so.Sylvia Edwards
