tumbling over civic stone
makes me wistful for us

And angels of the sky
Come not on
Nor walk upon
My mind’s sweet inner eye…"

Escaping soul
Please do not go
To the unseen place
Which brings
#Blissful tranquility
For you.
#Wistful and heartbroken
Longing
For me.

There’s a wound here in this soul, in a corner just out of reach. It pulsates with this peculiar rhythm. Gentle at times, like the tide under a full moon, when the memories seem far, and I feel wistful in the moment, thinking of the joy that became the sorrow. Other times it vibrates, raging for how such gash cannot be justified nor healed in a single lifetime. A stormy sea then, demanding blood, light house toppled by the shared effort of hefty waves and an acutely placed strike of lightning. And lost sight, cut by the reefs, I bleed. Lynn Peyo
Mmm, I felt feisty today.
I felt like taking on a whole dinner course of #prompts, in a 100 word format.
Fingers were flexed, thoughts uncurled, words smithed.

A poem by Robert Emond. Wistful the elderly cynic recalls the time when with childlike optimism they believed love, kindness, and reason ruled the day. Now with years of experiences they believe it is hatred, fear, and greed that reign. Wistful to help the elderly optimist watches the struggle knowing the battle is from within.

wistful for the life

#wistful for a forgotten dream
as I sit in the loud silence
night after night
hearing just the tapping of your keys
and seeing your indifference
with your headphones on

Take a long, wistful meander,
loosening heavy chains,
drifting down a country lane
where silvery rain falls gently
from yielding skies,
soothing restless minds.
And as we wander home,
the quiet deepens,
night settles in,
revealing
the lingering trauma
of the day.

wistful and aware
sighs slip out like wasted breath
always chasing smoke

I am #wistful for
"the days of wine and roses"
in the winter of my days
Was it all seeming,
lotus dreaming?
"it was the best of times"
now I live "the worst of times"
though I #rue some wasted hours
I still long for flowery bowers
where the clock
can be re- #wound

#Hefty Hazel loved her #treats
by #sixth grade couldn't see her feet
wore 3X pants
mid many a #fiery #glance
addiction was #chronic
favourite drive-thru was Sonic
#wound ran deep till she took that 1st shot
lost 100lbs & #wistful she got

craving the many lost lives
life never refunds love

THE BRIGHTEST BRICK I have replaced the darkest void with the brightest brick and it is infinitely more dangerous. My dopamine dependency is a choke chain around my entire life and it leads me through Eden and Gehenna with no journey in between. I've got permanent bends, staggering through symptoms of cancers I'll never meet. I type manifestos with wistful fingers and pray that they'll make a difference, buried under a million other scorching takes. Blue light can be a debridement for my long festering wounds but it can also be a pathogen that infects my entire spirit until I have to sever the whole damn thing.
I think a major root of my current anxieties is my social media and phone addiction. I need to curb it and I think writing this was a good first step. I HAD to write this. Poem in alt text!

I am the mud coating the ground
Remembering the way the rain soaked in,
And the revelations that we found
While we suffered in his domain-
Of lightning and howling hounds
I would never forget your name.

countless trees
reached to a blushing sky
offering condolences
for the #wound of man
what had become
of her earthly charge
tears fell wistfully
while she remembered
songs from a joyous #nest
instead of death knells
wrought by the cuckoos
who infected it

Does it feel like an old plane ticket
Found neglected in your baggage
Inadvertent souvenir of a trip you had
A place you could have stayed
A place you could have returned
But you never did
You said no
Life and you, had other plans
Do you get that feeling
I do
When I look upward

Wistful for whimsical trips

I'm still wistful about the past sometimes but when I met my late husband it was... different.

An old gentleman with a walking stick glances intensely at an elderly lady passing by, in Stirling, Scotland. Wistful, maybe sinful. A tale as old as time.
