Burn- poetic expression

Burn.
Lots of things burn! And in many different ways.

Hope you enjoy these few expressions around the word of the week.

Next week’s word is ‘whisper’. Feel free to drop in or if you’d like to write a poem, you can! Visit the events calendar on this site, for the zoom link to join us.

Hope to see you there

Inner Burn


Is it the churn
That creates the burn?

Is it the stories we are reading
That’s leaving us seething?

The ouch from the sting
This is painfully hurting!

What is happening around us
Seems we can no longer trust

What we hear and see
Of what may or may not be

Tech companies and governments with little care
Cleverly delude… we’re no long aware

Is it real?
Or just a deal?

Can we ever steal ourselves
away from this horrid appeal?

This game
That’s filled with shame

Is there somewhere else to go
To stop this type of show

And not be blind
To bring what is kind

To wake up and realise
That a life on this planet…
Is the prize

Burn a Letter


Have you ever experienced this?
People you cared stopped replying to you and disappeared in your life
Heartbroken, lonely and empty
What can you do now?
Write a letter
But instead of sending it out
You burn it
In that way
You let go of your emotions
And have a closure
I will give it a try.

Self Wealth


Family, friends, achievements
Nature at it’s finest
Unique talents at the theatre
Life in general at its brightness
A goal in university degrees
At school, sport, whatever may please
Sit and feel the gentle breeze
To burn with pride and gratitude
While in sublime solitude
