Reborn

She is calm
beneath the storm

Lazuline lush
and drowning pools

I wade through her:
Infant.
Unsure.

Reborn,
A child unto her-

Seeking solace
beyond her blue.



Author notes

I love to swim- it makes me feel at ease and connected. I find it therapeutic.

Wrote this one in my head while I was in the local pool today- wanted to express how I feel in the water.

Catching thoughts like butterflies.

    lovely

    Impromtu writes are delicous; spontaneous as though words are coming from a pure connection of body and mind; feelings....thoughts, impulse....desire...the poetry flows and you have something very special!

    wondeful insight into 'you'.

    As a number of others have commented the meaning of this poem is not completely obvious except to the writer but it is still good.

    Mysterious Ways Lyrics (U2)

    U2 - Mysterious Ways Lyrics



    Johnny take a walk with your sister the moon
    Let her pale light in to fill up your room
    You've been living underground
    Eating from a can
    You've been running away
    From what you don't understand...
    Love

    She's slippy
    You're sliding down
    She'll be there when you hit the ground

    It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
    She moves in mysterious ways
    It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
    She moves in mysterious ways

    Johnny take a dive with your sister in the rain
    Let her talk about the things you can't explain
    To touch is to heal
    To hurt is to steal
    If you want to kiss the sky
    Better learn how to kneel

    (on your knees boy)

    She's the wave
    She turns the tide
    She sees the man inside the child

    It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
    She moves in mysterious ways
    It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
    She moves in mysterious ways
    It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
    Lift my days, light up my nights

    One day you will look...back
    And you'll see...where
    You were held...how
    By this love...while
    You could stand...there
    You could move on this moment
    Follow this feeling

    It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
    She moves in mysterious ways
    It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
    She moves in mysterious ways
    It's alright, it's alright, it's alright

    We move through miracle days
    Spirit moves in mysterious ways
    She moves with it
    She moves with it
    Lift my days, light up my nights

    I thought this was a verry good poem. It's a little hard to understand what you are talking about. But I think you are writing about Mother Nature/the Earth. But great poem. What I like most about it is the wording and how you make me wonder and keep guessing what it's about. what made you think of writing this type of poem? Good Job!!!

    I think it sounds like you could be talking about your mother, but I like the way this sounds....very heartfelt response.
