The Dreaming Loon: A Small Collection of Poetry

Summary:

Just a small collection of poetry I wrote in college for my Poetry Workshop class.

Chapter 1: Nightly Musings

Chapter Text

In a sky full of fireflies

I prance next to tides,

Hoping and wishing for

The dawn of a new forge

Most amazing and splendid,

So kindly all-their-heart tended,

Knowing all love and grace

While giving truth fastest chase:

❇︎

Living and dying, laughing and crying;

Climbing and swinging, fighting and flying—

All the same for all of life's sake,

Becoming one and leaving nothing to fate

Cycles that never cease nor end.

They're never far—just around bends—

So I eternally travel and eternally wander

To horizons that leave me to ponder:

❇︎ 

"When will the next cycle appear

To sweep away the weary frontier?"

And so I impatiently await

For the gods to choose the date,

Skipping excitedly for

The next greatest tour

Of Creation and its creatures,

Observing newborn methods and measures

❇︎

Of cycles never ceasing nor ending,

So wisely time should we be spending.
