Welcome to poetry month! I've challenged myself to write a poem a day and will post them here. Below are days 1-3, definitely influenced by time, space and my constant movement through them. Join in if you dare! It's fun, I swear :)
April 1 - The Enormity of It 'What's your favorite part?' The enormity of it... Can't be surmised Without eyes, ears, feet and nose On the pulse of it, Without tasting every molecule With one's own tongue. The lines have been blurred Between expected responses: Countries, cities, streets. The enormity of it... When you step outside. The breath it steals As it shrinks down To home size - Where you've laughed and loved, Laid your head down and cried, Where you've found yourself And what it means to be alive.
