She’s tired,
so tired,
tired of lists and the
obligatory dance of the
well-worn rut, the
choreography of the
damned. So she’s
letting go, letting
it fall, raindrops
baptising tear ducts
in a redemptive soak,
epsom salts of
grace.

Event The Ark One needs a good…lachrymation…every now and then. But none of you heard that from me. Check it out, my friends. Grace Rain.
Epsom Salts of grace! Do you ever use Epsom Salts on your garden? I am told it is very good but i haven’t actually tried it.
No I haven’t! I was thinking more of a nice long bath soak… 🙂 I’ve heard they are good for getting rid of pests…
Epsom Salts; seems they work miracles 🙂

Melody, I like the soul soothing ending… grace!

Thanks Wendy! WE’re getting some lovely rain here – better blossoms to come, I think!
Just love this one.
Thank you so much!
“Choreography of the damned”–wow, Mel, if you never wrote another word, those would seal your place among poet laureates (in my humble and correct opinion). I LOVE that!!!
🙂 I rather liked it myself… Glad your opinion is both humble AND correct!!
That sounds like a great idea and the imagery even more enticing.
Thanks Lyle!
I LOVE THIS! Thank you, Melody, for writing so faithfully and so full of faith!
Thank you Debbie for your continued and heart-warming encouragement…
Dear melody, hope this finds you well. clocked your poem on a reblog from a pal of mine (and rightly so, great poem). Reading the comments here makes me aware i am not alone in thinking that ‘Choreography of the damned’ is a magnificent line, made me think and re-think and read the poem over and over. Well done, m’lady, excellent piece. Keep smiling and keep writing, kind regards from Baldy 🙂
Why thank you, kind sir! 🙂 I appreciate your visit, and your kind words…
