Of mice and dices
9 December 2015

My toes in the sand
Chipped irregular paintings
Edges’ adornments
Colourless waters
Whisking away solid grounds
I stand through nowhere
The sea comes to die
On sinking sand that withstands
My frame as I lie

Down crashes the moon
Picture perfect of night fall
Under rising sun

The waves roared thunderous
Upon wild decaying shores
Swept dark moonlight’s blue
Winter’s rain beckoned
Fleeting recognition’s wink
Seasons bear their tides
I rose up to ends
Stammered stories, chattered pains
Of mice and dices

Beautiful, Geetha. I especially like the part about the moon crashing down….why do we poets like to treat her that way so much? 😉
Thanks Eric. Perhaps we should ask, why does she crash down so much only for us 😀
You’re brilliant, Poetess. 😉
Ah ah ah, I am naughty, even with the moon 😀
Beautifully told as always..
Thank you Paul
the images are beautiful..
Thank you 🙂
What a clever title dear Geetha, and how spectacular that moon crash.. (ouch!!) The imagery is always breathing life to your poems.
<3
Thank you Dajena 🙂
🙂 You are welcome beautiful lady!
Thank you and now for the new compliment 🙂
🙂 welcome again!
Geetha, your images are as always, spectacular. This piece left me speechless. Like a night at the theatre. It filled me with a sense of loss and yet at the same time, hope of new beginnings. Beautiful.
Thank you Annie. Very perceptive reading 🙂
For the pictures, there are so many artists to thank out there who keep producing amazing pictures. At the beginning of my blogging I just used to Google and take but as I kept finding more and more beautiful pictures I thought perhaps I should be recognising them somehow although one can never be sure who really is the artist. Then I chanced upon a fellow blogger who simply puts the web reference of where he got the picture from Google and I thought that was a marvelous idea and adopted it since then. Sometimes when the actual name of the artist is available I add it too, some way of thanking them for their images.
I didn’t realise I could do that. Brilliant idea, Geetha. I know that my images are often a little timid because I stick to one sight. Who knows what will be possible if I actually look properly.
If you look with the same creativity you are unveiling within yourself and to us I am sure you will find astounding images. The ones you take and post are already wonderful. I use combinations of words to browse through Google. For this one it was fantasy dice woman and others too.Sometimes I combine pictures so the one I have on my Facebook poetry page is actually one I have made of two images.
Bless you, Geetha. That’s a beautiful thing to say and one that will give me added bounce on my journey to the ‘other side of the kitchen.’ We don’t have the greatest broadband speed here and so it may be quicker at times if I draw one myself. Only kidding but it really can be slow.
Actually you probably would do a better job drawing one yourself 🙂
Bless you too Annie and am glad if you keep your bounce through the day
