Poetry...

... it's like food to the mouth, air to the lungs, and sun to the living. I breathe it in, and so can you. Soak in these mellifluous syllables, and feel them as their fantastical utterances roll off the tongue...or eye.

Two Short Verses

Green bursts through the hillside,
Like a clap of thunder
After the lightning strikes.
Blue glows in the ocean high,
With white streaks of day.
Sun streams through
The green on the hillside,
Dancing as though around a campfire.


 -Madelaine Irene


Two Twin Trees
Alongside Eachother.
Their Boughs Extend
Close To The Touch
But Not Close Enough
The Twig of a Twig
The Prick of A Leaf
The Tiniest Touch Stands
Between The Twin Trees
Together They'll Stand,
Two Twin Trees
Never To Touch
The other Untouched
Tree's Hand.

-Madelaine Irene
