The Poetic Voyage - Poetry Of Life's Journey

Travelling to a distance so far, Running away from the noise in the car, Leaning my head on a steel bar, I looked down to the road of tar. Dragging in my sleep with a yawn, My mom spoke loud, "It's new years dawn", Lifting my eyes to the skies so blue, I wished I had some permanent glue. I'll tell you why, you'll need it too, I wish I could say "Oh Grumpy you", There's a word called admiration too, But then again to start with whom? Looking back to the skies so blue, Thinking of what I can do, My heart said stop thinking of glue, So I wrote this rhyme just for you. I don't know you, You don't know me, Well, that's very true, But far away across the breeze, I felt you were grumpy too, Just smile, say cheese, Don't let it fade with the breeze, I'll come back to say peekaboo. -Debra R.

Swimming in a pool, Of empty thoughts, Wondering where, She lost all thoughts. Heading closer, To the victory point, Swimming back, In the pool called mind. Quarrels between, Her heart and mind, Rising high to reach the sky, Leaving aside the victory point. Shrinking in her empty thoughts, Mourning with a pointless cry, Thinking how it should have gone, Wondering if she was going to die. Leading all the fun astray, She chooses to stay, And haunt the house, Forgetting about the victory mark. A voice she heard, Called her out, Told her this, You can't give up. Turn away from your nagging mind, Look around there's positive vibes. Think about the road you drove, Keep in mind the seas you swam. Don't forget the insults and cries, Fly to all the joys you find, Don't give in to this messy mind, Come arise let's get over this hike. -Debra R. N. Ludwick-
