Meditated Word List Poem (in class 1/8)

I

Now memory resound and unfurl
with resilience like bell of prayer bowl
across time's space continuum!

I may hover at her attic window
or dwell near an earth scented coffin
seducing me to burrow closer.

Yet the border remains porous
between girlhood ruin and
grace of acceptance

These shards of unrequited possibility
cease to be ghosts of samsara bound tragedy
but playing cards of sage scented cinder

I pick one, knave of spades lets say,
and in its powdery wake
a tine white blossom endures.


II
Now wind resound and unfurl
with resilience like passage of prayer bowl
across time's space continuum!

I may hover at her sorrow's window
or dwell near an earth scented cloud
seducing me to burrow closer.

Yet the city remains porous
between girlhood break and
despair of acceptance

These shards of unrequited possibility
cease to be ghosts of samsara bound tragedy
but playing cards of sage scented smoke

I pick one, knave of spades lets say,
and in its powdery wake
a tine white open(ing) endures.
