Daily Poem #1: Pathogen

A pandemic; passed from one to another
A calamity
A mishap
A fluke
But nevertheless, a catastrophic blow to all the ends of the Earth
Spreads almost liquid-like with power of poison
Uprooting routine
Tearing families apart

But bringing them together all the while
Unison; the warmth of family
It takes a viral terror to bring families together.

While left is right
And right seems wrong
A lack of throng

A warm hand, holding everything together
A cool breath of reassurance
Divinity is everywhere, yet it is most apparent during confusion and strife

Courage from above
Living in fear abolishes peace

Smear the paint of calm swiftly
Ring the bell
Fly a flag of reconciliation

-Trevor :)

Last Day of Poetry Month!!! The Poetic Candle

The scent of the wind The touch of the air Can only be described by a poet The taste of a word The sight of the unknown Can only be exposed by his writing How up is down And left is right Is a mystery to all but him When chaos is calm And everything in between Can not be explained to anybody else In the darkness He sees color and light In the cold of the winter He feels summer's warm breeze A dimmed light A candle of warmth All he has to offer others But in his head 'Tis a torching blaze -Trevor :) I had a lot of fun this month. I only had time (and memory :D) to do half of the prompted poems this month, but I saved my favorite idea for last! Thanks!

Daily Poetry #7: The Leader

A strong man of courage Putting others before himself A hill full of anguish A mountainside of sorrow Bravery drawn Hands pointed to heaven Leading the charge for freedom Destroying the lurking grief A leader The Leader -Trevor :)

Poetry #16: The ABC's of Poetry

Sorry, I haven't exactly been keeping up daily, but I'm still enjoying this. Pen hits paper with a splatter of ink Mind resorting to casual life, extravagant dreams Hours of throwing caution to the wind Thoughtfully chewing a snack as you browse prompting sites Anger, tears, frustration Crumpled paper hits the floor Unboxing a new pen, ink-splattering and all And starting once more -Trevor :)
