2 short prose poems (the song of spring)(the ocean)

The song of spring

(by sheri grutz)

The song a heart made of ribbon made the head go soft against the hard rain

not a hat but a bow when he said it was his gift to carry every day

gives what they can't tie up throwing arms around the world

the sun rising pitched in the sky and the words melt the packed surface

a song dances through trees the lips of pots overflowing

but if his shattered dream was glass he'd learn to pierce his mark



The ocean

(by sheri grutz)


Sand slips through holes in her life in a box a pebble stays in the shoe

finding this shore was any unearth to layers in her mind gone deep

it is the same for miles moving mountains and terrain and planted stars

water collects in her small step moving vastness and energy

a rush of birds or runner or explaining that wind

she is a child pushing off the vessel and drifting away

I'm more rational today

 just a combination of many things, social media, no free speech, after all the time I've spent, Phil's diagnosis, my fight for justice inching on 30 years of fighting, and seeing no light at the end of tunnel, thinking I'm doing it all myself, and can't get a simple reply of encouragement. plus I do everything to access, and getting burnt out so often, they made fun of me about that too, when so many people are like me.  you think you got me figured out, think again! I've decided to stay on my blog, and keep Messenger, and the internet, but no social media posts anymore, but I haven't deleted any account.
