Friday Writings #146: Substitutions

@Poets and Storytellers United 

Lightly Flavoured Memories

 

What was it 

again my mind strays

Trying to figure

that mysterous ingredient 

with which she cooked 

That which touched my palate

and made the memory 

a long yearning 

To make it again

I still try to figure 

whilst making the same recipe 

a dream to make it right 

What was it .......

there my mind goes astray again

Friday Writings #145: Dreams and Memory

 

The difference

Myriad suns have set and risen

The silence follows 

Do I make a difference 

I ask myself 

A myriad moon have risen 

And again my heart dips into the abyss

Could I make a difference 

I ask myself

Relentlessly the ocean hits the shore

The salty wind breezing past into oblivion

Should I try to make a difference 

I ask myself 

With no one near and none to judge me

I cry my lungs out on the mountain top

Whether I make or not a difference 

I tell myself
