strings unbound
tendons are loose
old glue is gone and
connections dissolve
bridges burn black
to castles of ash
a bell jar of wax
winks through night's coma
memories depart
bury the plot of old dust
leave the future behind
...transformed by the dawn

awesome... love "bridges burn black to castles of ash" - this will stick in my head for the rest of the day now :)
I so much want to have that, transformation by the dawn :)...
nice use of words..
Bury the plot of old dust
Very good. You're such an artist and I love the beautiful picture too
A very moody piece which I enjoyed; some great images.
A beautiful poem, full of humour and grace. A soft rhythm and full, yet delicate language capturing a transition with great skill and precision. Wonderful.
Beautiful poem. Describes a transition with a gentle humour and grace. A soft rhythm and fullness of language reveal great technical skill. Wonderful.
i love the line a bell jar of wax, winks thru night's coma.. the moon in all "her" glory......
"Strings unbound, tendons are loose..."
This gives such a feeling of readiness for movement and change...
Lovely poem.
Very interesting image I get with your poem.
Love the fractal.

Dawn...enforces renewal. Very vivid...
As always my friend, your work speaks volumes. I love the imagery and the picture paint with them.. Great work.....
(wish I could say so much in a few words.)
love-bd
Your poem flows so well and the fractal is lovely. I enjoyed it.
Moody and etheral, yet grounded. I like your take on the prompt.
Hi there......
I am taken by your poem.....the process of renewal...of letting go throughout the night reaching for the future, for dawn's renewal and starting again.
great word tumbles :)
What a lovely word picture to go with the picture on the screen. Loved it!
As I read your poem I kept picturing an old guitar, slowly giving up its music and reverting back to wood and strings. Your words touched something very deep inside of me.
First the body, then the mind, and finally...light!
Great poem about sleep.
lovely sleepy poem! I SO wish I could write real poetry like this tumblewords. :)
a delightful read
Forgot to say - good luck on your Nanowrimo/novel. It's nice to know other people are writing novels at the same time.
Your words have struck a deep chord in me... my favorite line, "to castles of ash..." pure magic.
Hi - The imagery is beautiful and realistic. Nice work.
Indeed dawn can be a powerful reminder of the passing of time. Great poem!
Sue,
I love coming here. The artwork is a wonderful touch! My favorite line "bridges burn black to castles of ash" :)
All of it, brilliant.

Very Nice! I particularly liked these lines: "a bell jar of wax
winks through night's coma"
And your art, as always, beautiful!
vivid, moody and yet soothing ... renewal through sleep ... love it
3 excellent stanzas ... wonderful language of renewal! Peace, JP/deb
I DID NOT like it!
Just kidding, I think everyone else have taken the words i wanted to say.......... so I say nought..
Sigh!
Lovely. It makes me think of a phoenix. So hopeful.
Hi Sue! Really nice! Dawn is the ultimate transformation and renewal -- so beautiful!
:)
Great images! I needed to read through it thrice to let the words dissolve in me. Cool fractal!
Oh wow, that was mind blowing. Superb, thank you.
