PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Perched on a slumbering mossy log

clutching that which is a part of the earth and a part of you

Fire

Ignite the flame

Air

Inhale the pungent smoke

Water

Tears fall as a wave of comfort and awe washes over -

oneness, belonging



The elements come together, everything becomes clear and sharp

Bare branches' silhouettes extending, fractalizing,

reaching for the night sky

Intricate patterns against clouds that conceal the stars.



Your body melts away,

as you bond with the universe once more.



Lights in the distance filter through the fog

Eerie beams make their way into the clearing

Transporting you from the concrete

to a strange and beautiful dream world.

The thick fog seems more like a blanket curling around you

than a foreboding symbol of limited visibility



A small patch of mushrooms grows near

They seem to glow a pure white

Carriers with potential, sitting patiently without agenda -

take it or leave it.



The earth's treasures illuminate what we have but often overlook.

All of these wonders await -

Tell me, is this a crime?
