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 ;)

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 :)

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 :)
