Liquid Ice Musing: August 2010

Empty

Eventually vacant
Missing emotions
Personalities subdued
Through neglect
Yearnings disappear

-------For One Single Expression

There was a pensive air
Boarding the naval ship
Troops marched forward
Some with quivering lip
Just a short time ago
Graduating from high school
Facing a new life
With absolutely no rule
Except to follow orders
Without questioning why
Learning any hesitation
Could cause many to die

Beginning The End

Posted by Maggie on Friday, August 20, 2010 | No Comments

In the beginning
It came to be
Adam and Eve ate fruit
From the forbidden tree
Located in the garden
Where God placed man
Providing for all needs
From bounties of the land
God walked with Adam
During the evening each day
But because of their disobedience
God sent Adam and Eve away
From the Garden of Eden
Where there was no sin
To live a life of hard labor
Among sins without end.

Shut In

all tightly wrapped
in snug cocoon
protection from any
invasion or doom
creating a comfortable
zone to live
no longer valued
having nothing to give
darkness has replaced
warmth of summer sun
searching for relief
unable to run
away from lonliness
existing in room
all tightly wrapped
in self made cocoon
