Pen (Metaphor Poem)

An ink threaded needle

Sewing letter and word,

Stitching stories unheard.

Weaves, twists, and turns,

Then the thread adjourns

And ends its write

That stained fabric,

Fragile and white.

Haiku, Cinquain, and Tanka

 PIANO

(Haiku)

My hand strikes the key.

A metallic drop of rain rings,

The sound is piercing.

DREAMS 

(Cinquain)

Dreaming,

Cheating what’s real,

Meeting your darkest hopes,

Leaving your deep secrets in sleep.

Dream on.

ANXIETY 

(Tanka)

My sanity tears,

Thinking becomes oppression.

My lungs claw for air,

My mouth fills with depression.

Anxious possession.
