Hi everyone! It's been awhile since I've done one of my poetry quickfires. Boisterous, rambunctious boys fill my house right now. It's not the best creative atmosphere for me, but I felt that this poem had to get out one way or the other. I like working the wording out spontaneously in the blog post window. I know that I have only about 10 minutes (usually) so it's fun to see what comes out of me when that elusive Muse decides to come by and visit :)
Thanks for reading!
What Calls From The Window
Hunger, place me in that field of promise,
where dreams of being unravel in clouds.
Fear, please fill my world with discovery,
when disconnect holds my voice in shackles.
Quiet, gather me into your comfort,
where silence creates a chorus of one.
Self, circle around to witness the trapped,
when each syllable scales the impossible.

love it! The phrase "chorus of one" really grabbed me.
Good luck with the boys!
First of all, Kelly, WOW. This could be one of my favourites of yours. I know those feelings so well, especially the disconnect.
I have tiny boisterous boy so I can't even imagine what it's like to have three!!!
As always you do such a great job.
These really are "quick fires" with all that action going on at your place.
I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving tomorrow!
This was simply great to read.
Happy Thanksgiving
Yvonne.

First let me thank you for your always encouraging words...
You know how much I love your writing. You're wonderfully cryptic. And this poem is just so spot on. I love the soft imploring of these entities... especially quiet. I need to call out to quiet more often.

I love when you find the time to be the poet you are.
I really like this one. And I didn't know you wrote these "at" the screen ... even more impressive.
This is very deep Kelly-I hope you find your "silence of one" and peace today...
I really do like this one. I would definitely say it's one of my faves of yours!
