Poetry Slam On A Rainy Day – Quatro / “Horses Trapped In A Castle”

” A Pale Green Mermaid Blog “

  

QUATRO

  

HORSES TRAPPED IN A CASTLE

  

Walled gardens 

Walled hearts

Walled lives

my horses now run free

their hooves pound gently across my chest

you never should have tried

to rein them in-

pretending to be kin,

 

stolen from under the mulberry tree.

 

 

This poetry slam is dedicated to J. who helps me and others through these days.

THE END
