Thirty by Thirty Daily Challenge - DAY 23

June 23rd, 2013

Prompt:  Earth

 Universal Energy

tenderly rooted in the foundation of soil

obscured, invisible boughs above

sprouting subliminal verve

an all-powerful force

hidden within the ambience of the air

established yet hitherto creation

longevity reigns unique

thrust in every direction

embraced in the stillness of the momentum

briefly resting barefoot on the earth

absorbing innocent nature, in purest form

while toes gently explore the dirt

suddenly wholly mindful

awareness awakens the energy of the universe

the power is in your hands

within your soul

Prompt:  Sentiment

  

Sentimental Journey

  

photographs etched in the corners of my mind

creating memories from vanished eons

once living breathing moments

now extinct in reality

once filled with the energy of life

now restricted to mere instant bursts

of random images afloat within my soul

some visions pass quickly

as others linger persistently

embedded within my heart

as a deluge of emotions

engulf my mortal existence

consuming my presence of today

as memories of the past

swallow me in a plethora of dreams

impressions of yesterday

magically entangled into the now

attached to reminders

perception clouding reality from fantasy

how I remember

not precisely as it was

Thirty by Thirty Daily Challenge - DAY 12

  

June 12^th, 2013

Prompt:  More

  

Less is More

  

Often, for many

It certainly seems

All that we have

Doesn’t match our dreams

Materialistically

We have more than we need

Nevertheless we get bitten

By that bug called greed

To keep up with others

We go to the store

We shop til we drop

In search of more

It’s time to unclutter

To stop the confusion

It’s time to change

The defective illusion

Instead of searching

For more and more

Appreciate all you have

To be grateful for

Prompt:  Plume

Peacock

Wild iridescent elegance

Of brilliant blue-green

Flamboyantly shimmering

Whilst gently embraced

With each stroke of sunbeams

Illustrious grandeur

With majestic magnificence

In dignified nobility stance

Of self-confidence and poise

Royal plumage visibly expands

In hopes of attracting his peahen
