The Poetry Marathon

The Composer

What heavenly symphony rises
weaved by the eternal master
that freezes the moment of reincarnation
the dry yellow
dances over the verdant green
where death meets life in the deep

Hour 4

Purple Earth

Under the blue sky
purple earth shimmers
and tree of life
spreads its vines

Hour 3

@varenyas

Between the woods and frozen lake

(The above line is taken from Robert Frost’s poem  Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening,)

Between the woods and frozen lake

the wizard’s only halting place
his snow apple cart enjoys little hay
with the queen coming to stay

Twinkling stars at half midnight
brightens the misty frost
the stick waves a magical charm
he moves a dance to harm

The unknown prince over the frozen lake
shakes his sword to dispel the haze
his smile instantly spreads in the woods
ready to give back the goods

The wizard fumes in his den
there is but an apple missing
his cottage in the middle burns
and the charm of the woods returns

Hour 2

@varenyas

First Rain
silken lashes falling on her golden face
runs down the slender neck forming rivulets
drenched slowly
in season’s first rain
almost smug
jagged memories of holding wet palms
lost lover warms the heart
as droplets fall to the ground into puddles
her pretty legs splashing the water
the remnants of rain drops
dissolves in the everlasting moods

Hour 1
