No dream in one’s mind
Could ever compare
With the love I have
For my love so fair

Neither day nor night
Could my heart forsake
The dreams I do hold
For our love so great

There’s something powerful about choosing stillness in a world that never stops moving. I’m not hiding...I’m embracing the quiet, finding peace in the pause.

Immered in nature, my body a tree.

#innerchildpoetry #innerchild #innerchildhealing #poeticsoul #poetryforthesoul #wordstoinspire #poemsaboutlife #indiepoet #healingpoetry #spiritualpoetry

My fingertips converse with the trees
In the language of ancient songs
Wisdom woven inside with light
Some myths linger in the bones

Skin covered with moss
Dewy droplets tingling over my ribs
Like a soft spoken breeze
Touching parts of my divine fire

Spine pressed against the bark
The oak knows the truth
That it grew mighty from a small acorn
Heartsong branching out through the sternum

Inner kingdom of thoughts and feelings ablaze
Intangible universe within a magnet
Pulling pieces of my soul shattered in the ethereal space
Every storm a contraction birthing a new horizon

In the age of overwhelm, we forget: healing takes time, joy is a practice, and rest is resistance. Here’s a poem I wrote tonight to remind myself—and maybe you too—to stay human.

I met my younger self for a cup of cocoa

I met with my younger self for a cup of cocoa
We arrived early, because we don't like to keep anyone waiting. Smiling but ever so serious she studied me. I asked her if she remembers the time an elderly man at the bus stop said to look life straight in the eyes and never look down, you have so much ahead of you. She nodded and smiled, “See, he was right, even if the future seems dark now, you'll find your way and learn lots of things and meet many different people. Above all, while a long term relationship will break, a new one will come along, and three sweet souls will never leave you feeling alone in this world.” Her lines became soft, while I could still see her heart had trouble navigating the duplicity of life, and hopelessness spreading like spiderwebs, because some things you can't change alone. We both hang on to the echoes of farewells for far too long. Haunted by something untamed inside like a baby's cry. And we bleed our emotions through poetry. “Don't ever stop writing,” I whispered to her over our steaming cups, although you may be looked at but never seen, “it's your soul's talent, so nurture it.” She cringed, “these silly lines?” I told her she'll be brave and stubborn enough to publish a few books and change professions too. Her spine straightened in surprise. “See, you're not little, there's lots you can do. Stop playing small and enjoy the ride. Small joys will keep you warm through any transformation that might occur.” She didn't say much, ‘cause that's how she is, although in her mind a lot is going on, not much will come out. It’s her call that I heard, displaying a need to reconnect, to show me where it still hurts, and bandage the wounds once and for all, diving deeper through the veils of the past, to pour love in streams to the child within. We never actually parted, we sail hand in hand.

Do you get glimpses of your childhood reveries?
.
#innerchildpoetry #innerchild #innerchildhealing #poeticsoul #poetryforthesoul #wordstoinspire #poemsaboutlife #indiepoet #healingpoetry #spiritualpoetry

Whispers of my childhood reveries
Sneak into my mind, like a lost sunray
Piercing through time, reminding me
Of the debris still left inside

The emotional blueprint we leave on memories
Is not written in stone, but can be molded like soil
The only thing that we get to carry with us
When we finally go

I step into my ancestry lineage
And try to articulate the unsaid
My hands submersed in the lost art
How much is the heart even worth?

The wild bird of my soul
Shows me the untrodden path of my dreams
And I follow it with all that I got
Stranded like a fool, but filled with urging belief

With words shedding the stardust of my fingertips
Leaving ripples on the cosmic playground
For a chance to spark healing in another
We're small but connected at the core

You're not the
heavy irritant
I sometimes
take you to be,
the suppressor of
enthusiasm and verve.

You are the reminder
of love's ache
to return to itself,
a constant pull.

I wrote this after my operation — about fear, surrender, and the quiet peace that came when I realised I was never really alone.
Sometimes faith whispers loudest when the world goes silent.

We’re excited to be back, posting poems from our hearts to yours! For our first Poetry Month poem, we’re reflecting on the knowledge that, by living a three-dimensional life, we can learn to fully inhabit our own most sacred places.

✨ "Make life a mission, to spread joy to others..." Let joy inspire you this Advent season! Read more at Pesky Poetry. #AdventJoy #ChristmasCountdown #PoetryForTheSoul

Advent Poem 2024: Joy

The content reflects on the challenges of finding joy, particularly during difficult times at the year's end. It acknowledges that life isn't always pleasant, as darkness exists alongside the light. It encourages individuals to connect with others, offering support and friendship as a way to make the most of each day. Furthermore, it emphasizes the importance of spreading joy to others, suggesting that this mission not only benefits those around us but also serves as a reminder that we may one day rely on that same joy ourselves.

Language of the fairies
Translating stardust of tears
Into odes of joy or grief
Children speak fluently

Stardust of our skin flickers
With the colours of the universe
When our eyes touch
A light we emit
