Six Micropoems by Donna McCabe

Alone Now

Once so close

Now separate, apart

Life plays twisted, cruel tricks.

□

Bonsai

Beautifully shaped

Older than appearance

Neatly pruned

Structured

And styled

Intricately.

□

Books

I am addicted to your pages

Enamoured by your words

When held in my hands

Eagerly devouring another chapter.

□

Calmness

Invoking calmness

When multitude emotions

Want to wash over, invade

Knowing they will only disrupt

Toy with the mind

To be calm is logic, safe.

□

 

Healing

Poetry and petals

The cure to soothe

A tired soul.

□

Mosaic

Many tiny fragments

Organised and structured

Strategically placed

Assortments of colours and shapes

Intricate designs and patterns

Culmination of seeing the bigger picture.
