Daily Poem #8: Music

It surrounds us
It wraps tightly around us
It sends warmth
It sends calm
It sends alarm
It sends peace
It alerts us
It soothes us
It makes us want to dance
It makes us want to nap
It is the sound of the garbage truck at 3 am
It is the sound of beating drums
It frightens us
It covers us in sweet songs
It is loud
It is quiet
It is deep
It is high
It is fast
It is slow

Yet, it is one word.

-Trevor :)

Poetry Month Day #27: Quarantine Birthday

I'm sorry for the delay in writing. Enjoy! When tomorrow comes I expect dread I will have the 'glums' I won't leave my bed It will rain It will pour I'll be stuck in vain Furthermore I doubt I'll have fun I just can't imagine Doing anything fun My birthday, but I stay IN No party! No friends! No Thomas or Marty Or Von Auren twins The cake will be sour The limes will be sweet I will spend hours Blanketed on the couch seat What's that you said Mother? Can it be true? We'll all be together So it WON'T be blue! -Trevor :) I am actually looking forward to my birthday, mind you ;)

Poetry Month Day #29: The Zoom Where It Happens

A tinkling sound You enter the meeting Your blurry video stutters You smile at your friends anyway Make sure you mute yourself Before grumbling about you boss Jenson disconnects once every five minutes (He lives in the country) Coulson forgot to block his video (He had to pick his nose) Chelsea's mic is picking up every strange sound (She's eating noisily) Flawed Lagging Forty minutes or pay up (Hold in your dry cough when you are unmuted) Button up a shirt and you'll be fine (Pajama pants are okay) -Trevor :)
