Prompts

25/09/202224/09/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

When all the prompts fail me,
when there is no inspiration,
I turn to you: music.

When I feel the words fading,
when the poetry sounds odd,
I turn to play a song.

When I turn, something comes.

A Song You Both Loved

23/09/202218/09/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

The rain begins to fall. The cold wind moves through your hair as you watch the person you love descend into the soil.

The raindrops roll down your pale face as you hear a song you both loved.

No longer visible, the wind blows as the music comes to an end and you walk away.

Insect Music

15/09/202211/09/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

Howling through the houses,
insect music plays us a song.

The windows rattle and shake,
fluff balls whoosh from hiding.

The clouds move undecidedly,
sun, grey, sun, grey, sun, grey.

We have a lazy mixed-up day,
undecided about what to do.

A Sea Composition

20/08/202214/08/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

You cast a spell on the crowd
with the rhythm of your metre.

Your words danced around the hall,
whooshed into their ears like waves,
galloped along wildly in their minds.

You spoke the last few words,
no more than a sea whisper.

Haiku: Rain Music

Clouds of fresh grey days
A heated house feels too hot
Rain music playing

Discord & Sleep

04/05/202216/04/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

Neverending days.
The workdays never stop, and
the news churns out the worst of us.

Sleep won’t come.
You listen to music in bed;
when the discord starts, sleep takes you.

You sink into chaos.
The madness of the music
accompanies your terrifying dreams.

Haiku: Pot Plants

Pot planted flowers
grumpy at their owner’s taste
in music, singing

Your Notes

16/02/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

You invited me to take a voyage on the notes you love.

We journeyed together, listening to the way songs changed over time; we embraced our favourites and kept an open mind.

Now, I remember you by a series of your favourite songs, which I sometimes play alone.

The Remains

06/07/2020 C and K WordsLeave a comment

After many years of love the bow broke,
then the music of love stopped playing;
we began to drift apart and separate.

Littered among the remains of
the two of us
are the ashes of music instruments.

All the music we played for each other
is now burnt
to the ashes on the floor of our parting.

Lavender Thoughts

17/05/202003/07/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

Wind from the hills moves down,
moving across fields of colour.

Waves of the sea move through
the spring blossoming flowers –
moving, swaying, blooming.

A melody plays in the wind,
a song from the many birds.

Whispers of so many scents
dance in a poem on the wind –
melody, music, movement.
