{ Many, many thanks to Ahavati and Johnny for hosting (and amazingly at the same time partaking in) this DUP NaPoWriMo Comp - all your hard work, and postings, are much appreciated.
And to fellow entrants whom I have done my best to follow each day, also a big thank you for the group energy and posted presence that catalysed me not to let the side down (probably just an ego thing). I look forward to continuing mutual encouragement on the regular posting pages :)...

Jake
you're the poetic part of me
the pieces I can't reach
stained glass pain
so beautiful to behold
each panel of our life
tells a story
an addicted mamma
who set a path
for your gentle soul
to walk through the fire
there was no other way for you
I crossed into hell
carried you with me
only one way back
& it was through the flames
yet you don't hate me
your spirit too bright
for...

Until That Day
Was it London, Paris or Rome?
Strangers who’s stars had crossed and yet
Better than that, on the Internet
Where we met in each other’s home!
The first real-time meeting one day!
Will I be shy (I'm not!), will he?
Shall I betray a quaking she
Who lives a life with feet of clay?
I giggle at those words I say
That I just now have written.
He knows how much I like to chat,
I’m worse though when I’m smitten!
Oh how he loves my chirpy voice,
Unless he calls when I’m asleep.
I just adore to...

Apple Honey
Today, though I didn't expect,
He gave me a photo he took
Of a bee in a blossoming tree
Among white spring blooms everywhere.
And said to me so gallantly
He'd bring apple honey one day.
And so in my mind came alive
When I used to turn countrified.
It instantly had me think of
When I'd drive to Charlie Brown Farms
On Pearblossom Highway afar
In Little Rock, Antelope Valle.
Where this time of year in the...

Revival
Dear Brothers & Sisters, please hear me.
I know in this world of today
Confusion abounds in one's journey;
There's no peace of mind anyway.
So tell me, please, my fellow sinners
As I stand here before you right now
On top of my '58 Chevy,
Is there anything better I vow?
Hell no! I mean, friends, look no further.
The future of faith is upon us
To take you to your destination,
And it's made in the U.S. of A.!

I. Ruminations
Perhaps it is befitting upon suffering
to return to our chosen conception,
rewind the poem to our humble beginning
the origin of our writhing birth.
The instance of gelatinous pod rupturing
its own ocean of submerged Life-form,
constricting to spill forth the contents
from the gestation of its sonar depths.
Into the fumbling gravity of sterility
flailing arms and...

A Blaze of Glory: Poetry Edition, NaPoWriMo '17
Someone who hadn't seen me recently
asked me if I was happy.
I've withdrawn from the public
to focus more on writing.
I didn't have to think,
that if I could spend
the rest of my life working part-time
to meet just the basic needs
e.g. - housing, utilities, etc.
I would be content living
the rest of my life
reading, writing, and doing
what we're doing now.
There's such a contentment
in following your dream.
