In the SunlightA Poem by Omar
The blades of grass Cut yesterday Trickling Like emerald
In the sunlight Everything is fresh And raw Even the wounds Pulsing furiously
No matter the centuries Closeted— In the sunlight Everything is new
Even the pangs, More intense Hearts more swollen
Ghost stories Bathed with color Alive, Floating and dancing Across a gray ballroom Light filtering Through the rose glass windows
In the sunlight, Nothing waits
It all accelerates
Ascending
So— Close the curtains Or blow them open
Even dusty cobwebs Of yesterday's apocalypse Sparkle In the sunlight © 2009 Omar |
