A Day Like This...


She woke up, this morning,
At 3 am, so clueless,
So sleepy, but sleepless,
"Go to sleep, with my teddy hug",
Said teddy, but those attempts, was useless.

Her mom came in, this morning,
"Good morning, wake up my darling",
While she was wide awake, trying hard,
To go back to sleep, with a teddy hug,
At the door she heard, her Jenny bark.

While she sits, in the dark,
She peeps outside, to find the stars,
Instead she sees, the rays of the sun,
"God, please let, this day be fun",
On her feet, she starts the run.

Off to work, in a speedy bus,
At the annoying hour, of Mr. Rush,
She saw a road, so quiet and dull,
It's time to sleep, it's okay, but how?
There was a lot on the internet, a lot to be done.

Scrolling the feed, up and down,
Listening to, her favorite song,
Ms. Sleep began, to shut the lids,
While the mobile escaped, her fingertips,
Her friend told her, it's time to get off.


In an almost empty, building she sits,
With a laptop on, and a mind that's lit,
To write me down, but workloads exist,
So, she added to her work, to count every minute,
What else can you expect, on a day like this?

Oh, Sweet Maiden!

  A burning flame, Glaring at, the steaming lane, The land of all, massacred slaves, Ripped by love, the origin of fate. Oh, that land, the rose crammed bed, Jammed with laughs, and smiles unshed, Pure as the heart, of an infant at rest, Led by the God, of foul prospects. The enchanter, of the dark, To the illusion, of a delicate arch, With the maiden, of sweetness at heart, Stepped in to, a mirrored witchcraft. Swinging and swaying, the ballerina passionate, Sliding and leaping, the pianist considerate, Stumbling and collapsing, the maiden naïve and laid, Weeping and hollering, through the crack sorcery reigns. Maiden, sweet maiden, dumbstruck, betrayed, Threw fits at the mirrors, of the enchanted cave, Left at the wilderness, to wither and break, Oh, sweet maiden, Queen Insane. -Nataliya Ludwick- @thepoeticvoyage

The Untold Goodbyes...

To the sky, a gun was fired, A bird shot down, tangled on a wire, Bidding farewell, to the life he desired, He missed a beat, that the heart required. A frizzy worm fell, off his beak, A drizzle of hay, slipt from his feet, The flock flew away, with cries and screams, While baby bird in the nest, longed for his meal. That innocent soul, lifted into the skies, With desires, hopes, and  baby bird in mind, The skies absorbed, the sorrows with sighs, And mourns reigned, for an untold good bye. Tear drops escaped, the eyes of the sky, Rain drops fell, on the nest so fragile, Baby bird wondered, why isn't dad on time, Until the nest fell off, while his broken heart cried. Lying on, the muddy floor, Looking up, he saw a door, That opened wide, with a bright glow, With four wings spread wide, and a cheerful hello. A sweet chirp said, "come darling let's go", Another said "Dads with you, our little fellow",...

I Continued...

Looking through, the window inside, On this wonderful day, the sun is bright, Little birds sing, a joyful rhyme, A bride prepares, for her carriage ride, In between four walls, I continued to write. Children screamed, come quickly let's hide, By the tree he sat, for the shade they provide, Cheerful little girls, enjoyed the slide, Mom continued to say, "come eat your rice", In between four walls, I continued to rhyme. The silver fountain, standing tall outside, With the sun's rays, it had to shine, The birds dance, and sing inside, What a beautiful day, what a beautiful sight, In between four walls, I continued with a sigh. For understanding there was, a great big fight, To understand and forgive, was a great big crime, Living with regrets, is the lesson taught by life, In this crowded world, I could not cry, In between four walls, I continued to fake smile. -Debra R.
