Wake Up

marygracewritingLeave a comment 
A tap
         To test the clockwork
                                                Silence
Beneath the pointer
          Test failed 

Deliberate
           Compressed lips
                                                Searching for the spark
That lingers deep within
           Determined heart 

Expelled breath
           Across the nodules of
                                                 Intelligence
Wake up
           Tickled thought
                                                 Don't stop

Growth

marygracewriting4 Comments

Today I share my reading of the poem ‘Growth’ with all of you.

‘Growth’ is one of the 36 poems in my new poetry collection, ‘Words of Weight’. Now available at Amazon as an ebook and paperback book. Or barrow it with the Kindle Unlimited program.

If you have read my new book, please consider leaving an honest review. Each one is important regardless of star value, and we appreciate each one.

Gocking eyes
read your lines
In drive by waves
from metal mines

Bare a soul
ripped wide
So metal mines
can drive straight lines

Trembles only felt,
never seen by the world at large
have given roots strength.
