 -- Hints of Wonder --

John Herlihy

 

A crack in the door,

A sliver of light,

A whisper in the wind,

The shadow of night,

A breath of fresh air,

A grain of hope,

The darkness of despair,

A tiny dust mote,

A spark of love,

The flood of desire,

Feather of a dove,

The sparks of a fire,

Hints of wonder,

Our hearts to plunder.

Years ago a good friend encouraged me to notice all the beauty around me as a way of battling a sense of hopelessness. From a child's laughter to a flower on the side of the road, beauty and hope are everywhere. Your poem reminded me of her.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
