This short poem was written for a group on Facebook – WE PAW Bloggers
The nightingale weeps a lonely song
Its mournful tune filling the forest
Splintering every branch and bark
While shedding pieces of a broken heart
As beacon for its lost mate
More-just
One last glance at that
Radiant face before the
Earth claims her forever

My entry for June’s challenge:
summer heat wave:
mayhem, screaming everywhere I go
After Mother’s death,
I found in the attic
unsent letters
The hand-crafted words brimmed
full of pain and love
and truth untold
My oblivious mind
gravely unshuttered
with the knowledge—
I’m an alien’s child

For this, I used the image they included in the Challenge’s post for inspiration:
Life…
in the simple act of living
surviving
victim
martyr
patient
breathing is torture
until you can’t
