The final day of the poetry challenge - The Irregular Ode

To you the spark that forever burns
Floating through the world like fireflies
Or drops of rain
Passing from person to person
Sometimes growing into a bonfire
Controlled and loved
Other times spiralling
Into a wild fire
A raging inferno
That devours and destroys
But rain can quiet overactive flames
And out of ashes new life can grow
Better than before
Inspiring new sparks in others
In a never ending cycle

I raise a glass to you
To you and everyone you touch

For day 6 of the poerty challenge

Free Verse which is in someways harder than stricter forms

I'm not entierly convinced by this poem, I think I like some of my other poetry it was still interesting to write

Music starts within a dream
Twisting through the night
Pulling on a mind like a loose thread in a seam
As the morning dawns the music lingers
Pulling on limbs and fingers
Needing to be drawn out through music or song
Unable to leave until released

That little tick in the back of your mind
Behind thoughts and plans
Growing in time and dreams
Flowing and floating and never ending

Once envisioned
Pushing to be performed
Unable to be abandoned

Once out in the world it leaves you be
But already it seeds new notes
New threads to pull
New notes to sing
Creativity once sparked
Only ended by force
Or apathy
But always smouldering
To be sparked again


(Other free verse poetry I have written Remembrance (Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy) and Lost (original poetry))
