blown by a fierce wind
the wishes ascend and dance
a stalk left bereft
excluded and withering
as new golden life springs forth
Thanks to the following for the inspiration:
is it the end or the beginning: it’s all about perspective
Tag: death
at first blush
at first blush hopeful
till the bruise stains the bounty
the blossom endures
Rory McEwen (British, 1932-1982)
I recently visited an exhibit of Rory McEwen’s paintings and I was blown away. His work is magnificent. I was really caught off guard by how much emotion a flower or a leaf or an onion (!) could convey. If you ever have the chance to see his work, take it! When I read today’s SoCS prompt word (BLUSH), I immediately thought of him.
that ruthless calendar
watching the days pass
spring, summer, fall, without you
a new year begins
and one more month races by
relentless and unyielding
thanks to JusJoJan for this chance to mark a sad anniversary.

Life Goes On
Another day gone
Words muddled and lost in grief
We stumble forward
