The Sky Is BlueA Poem by Maryam MottahedehThe Sky Is Blue Beyond the solitude of time An oasis of nostalgia calls Into the land of the mother that never was
The echoes through the phone lines Have me reach to the empty nest filled with fantasies The presence of nest is my savior The weave of a twig, leaf, feather, skill and desire Gently nudging a nudge of reminder Now too big to fit in, yet still tender
It is up to me The present time is all
Beholding a gem With the nostalgia of the cave from which it came before I I gather up
The sky is blue Off I go now In discovery of new © 2012 Maryam Mottahedeh |
