Rebirth
A beautiful prompt for the new year 2023 by Poet's and storyteller's united
Resolution
Rising
from water
I
rinse my soul
Of
uncleanly remnants
Belonging
to a rabid past.
I
emerge calmer than
the
wind which breathed
Life
to my nose
Regaling
gales which knocked
my
wind before
will
just leave my soul sour
I
pledge to do that no more.
Fresh
start
From
ashes apart
Will
bear fruit
Only
if you stop being everyone’s favorite fool
Be
ugly, Be astute.
Nice poem I love 'emerging calmer then the wind..'
ReplyDeleteNice guys don't win after all in this world.
ReplyDeleteYour link, "semsemism", isn't really in head's word base
and I can't find it in google? You use the label link a lot though?
..
Rinsing of the soul sounds refreshing. This made me wonder if perhaps one person's favorite fool is another person's wise man sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI like that your soul is a dragon!
ReplyDeleteCleansed of other people's foolishness fumes. I like that!
ReplyDeleteI feel the refreshening happening in this!
ReplyDeleteInteresting that others seem to have been directed to a different link. I've been consistenty directed to semimeanderings from your links, but often don't find the linked poem here! I like the image of the person trying too hard to be liked as "everyone's favorite fool."
