A daughter of no consequence
Feline countenance
Married off—
Sold to some high bidder;
A piano with keys barely out of tune
Just so—
Each note slightly off;
A kilter all her own—
Demeanor reckless—a tad
But really quite sound of body
With wide birthing hips
A good mother someday—
Perhaps.
Ever a feline countenance—
She will sweep floors
And whistle
While she works
To concentrate on tasks—
Mundane tedium a woman
Is born to.
A daughter of no consequence—
Plato in the bath tub,
Once the apples are in the pie.
Jack rabbits in the garden
And she feeds them all the carrots—
None left for the stew
Tonight.
A kilter all her own—
Her words are fleeting—
Little bug zaps of lightening
When she chances to open her mouth
And the long haired style of the time
Suits her perfectly—
As do the rubber boots she wears
To dig in mouths of clams—
For a pearl
That will buy her happiness.
A feline countenance—quite
She believes that when she dies
She will become one with the night stars;
Finally a chance to shine

March of Time
March of Time
Time marches to its own sound.
Tick tock, thump thump, click boom.
In a fraction of a second everything you know and love can be gone.
Life ends and life begins but time pays no mind.
It just keeps marching to its own beat.
Tick tock, thump thump, click boom.

The Past
To leave the past behind
is to gain wisdom for the future
never looking back only forward.

Gone
It's like a punch in my gut
A hole in my throat
Cotton in my head
I can't seem to accept the reality
I see your grave
I sit in your empty chair
Watch as your room became just a memory
The old photos of us smiling
The memories of us laughing
The old songs we used to sing
It both haunts and comforts me
Life has never been easy
But now it'll be so much harder
Time became my enemy
Fooling me into believing I had so much more
Just turn the clock back
Rewind the tapes of those happy memories once more
Come back to me
Tell me it'll all be ok.
But there's a sting in my heart
And it reminds me you're gone
I know this pain will be with me always

This was one of those poems that just started with a line- "A daughter of no consequence" and flowed effortlessly from there as if every line was prearranged by some God of Poetry into my brain. Which NEVER happens. But its pretty fantastic when it does.
