Abruptness Ode

Abruptness Ode

Comparing to others
You are existent in the sentiment
As you are the light of my eyes
Looking as the purity of my conscience
You are always pure and chaste
Rarity of a calming irrigation

There is a homeland for each lover,
& for each boat a harbor
& for each dreamer a glimpse of a vision.
Never had better description.

This is written for Laurie's prompt at 

Poetry Jam.  

Her prompt this week is

 "Letting Go."

Happy to be part of it this time.

Absent

Back then, 

There used to be some
That will work under the sun
Digging all their hands in the mud

Sweating, building and rising

Building for me and my generation

Faces were curious looking down

Standing behind the curtains
behind the windows

Some faces could only been seen,

Become square as they appear,

From their windows

There were some kids carrying books,

Laughing at other kids when passing.

Sweat and mud filled the air.

People like me would just follow

The song as the builders sing.

The songs, voices would continue

And the windows, become absent faces 

Starring at us.

This poem is written for the prompt 

"Time" at Poetry Jam!  

Please join us.
