A poem a day to keep brain rot away

Join me as I attempt to create a poem a day... whether awesome, bawdy, corny, dreadful, entertaining, fabulous, gross or hilariously hokey, I will try to string together everything from couplets to limericks - just for the fun of fiddling with words!

May 3rd, 2012

Today is quite a special day. I have actually reached the one year mark. I posted my first poem on May 3rd, 2011. I have had a great time doing this. It has basically become a habit and I don’t really want to stop. So, I am going to continue this thread because I have enjoyed it so much. It’s true that most of the poems were terrible. Some were good (or at least I thought so!) but mostly they were a reflection of something I either saw that day, thought of, felt or heard. In any case, I hope you have enjoyed the ride as much as I have. Here’s to letting the word out – come what may!

Valley of Fire

Away from all the noise
In the stillness of the air
You can still imagine beings
Who once walked and ruled there

Displaying the earth's magnificence
A tremendous coloured land
Of power, grace and beauty
All carved from rock and sand

Visiting was a privilege
Walking there a gift
Of soul and prayer and rememberance
A momentous ancestral lift

Thank you for the brilliance
Of unending natural change
The creation of a bastion
Far beyond our meager range
