I Fell

I fell asleep Thinking of you, Again. You fill my heart, And mind And then. It all becomes, So clear My friend. I wait, For you. I can't pretend. DRH Copyright Donna R Hedges 2021

The Sun’s Lament to the Moon

The Sun’s Lament to the Moon By the dimming of the firelight  I see a lovely glow Arising from  the still dark night His light to me  does show But only in  the darkest hours Stolen moments  before he rests Oh harsh moon how can you be  so cruel so rare,  so full my breast my heart is merely fuel.  Don’t bring me gentle promises Don’t mock me with your light Appearing as  the answer to  a cold  and endless night. Bright shine  and beautiful Ever  to offer more? Have I  broken your cold heart? Have you cast me  on your shore? Oh moon.    I want you  by my side, But I am  the fiery sun. The two  never to collide. Illusions cast Grasping rays  of moonlight empty hands. Maybes  and dreams  carried away  on the heat  of rising dew Sun breaking fast. Anew.  Renew.  D.R.H. copyright Donna R. Hedges 2021

Shooting the moon

Shooting the Moon Oh moon What have you done? Collecting penalties  On captured hearts.  Discarding them Once again.   Placed aside Till some later time When they may serve  Your purpose again.   You are no better than a common thief Betting on tricks in  blackjacket.  Playing hearts for fun.  Know this dear gambler of mine, The Ace of my heart Will not be played So easily.  Perhaps that was what you wanted, all along.  DRH Copyright 2021 Donna R Hedges

The Game

The Game   Tightly wrapped feet Cool breeze Dusting faces. Strong hands tightening laces All the way up.  Double knot.  Newly minted feet.  Wobbly legs.  "Steady, Son.  Hold onto me.” Step.    Step.    Glide.   Again.   Freedom! Joy.   Losing balance...   Bruises and bumps.  Pick yourself up.  Again and again.  Strong praise.   Stronger love.   Thanks, Dad.   Time shared.    It’s OK.   “I love you dad.” “I’m proud of you, son.” Change of game.  Now we watch.  A bond created.  Trial.    Triumph.   This game of life.  Some wins.    Some loss.  Same dusting off.  Same love.   Same game.  Time still precious.   “Steady, Dad. Hold on to me.” DRH  Copyright 2021 Donna R. Hedges
