A Poem for Corona Boredom.

 

HUMDRUM

 

(By: Karla Wagener, on September 6, 2020, while watching a documentary about David Bowie)

 

Sure to throw you off balance,

Compositions of passions…

Knock you out of your seats.

Give your soul new rhymes, intonations, and beats.

 

When you live on the edges,

Look to the corners, closely, and beyond the ledges;

Being concerned with the whole picture,

Taking in all the lectures...

 

Kindling is bound to be lit,

And bring something special back

To what got thrown off track!

To discover new inspiration,

It requires a good attitude and drive

Making the dreariness become alive.

A Prophecy Poem!!!

 

A REQUIRED RETREAT

(By: Karla Wagener on September 6, 2020)

It could be that what the World needs most

In this apocalyptic time is introspective healing.

The World has been ill, with a lack of compassionate feeling.

 

It could be the World needs

This time for deep reflection, contemplation

To better understand the ills; develop a contrite heart and soul,

And renew its direction towards a new start, with better goals.

 

It could be the World bleeds,

And does not recognize all that has gone wrong.

Become aware, consciousness,

Take up a new better attitude, music and song.

 

The survivors of this obvious devastation,

Will be those bound to an elevated divine revelation.

 

Is that like Bee´s Toe or Bee Trail??? Ha Ha Ha!

 

BESTOWAL

(Written by: Karla Wagener on September 6, 2020, after reading ¨The Good Stuff¨ news from Saturday).

I seem to remember

Much turmoil and mental pain

In the younger years,

A lot of solitude and loneliness,

Feeling out of place;

Not feeling comfortable

Isolation,

Within the human race.

 

Time passed by and somehow things worked out well,

Curing and comfort, care,

Worked the spell.

 

All the past is over.

What leads us on from here?

 

A desire to leave behind a legacy

Of meaning, generosity and purpose,

Something constructive,

And a whole lot of Love!

 

 

 

A WISH KEY POEM!

 

IN THE MIDST OF ANGELS AND INTERNET

(By: Karla Wagener, on August 29, 2020, after seeing the news informing that the trailer about Jimmy Carter with Dylan and Bono is available).

It´s not enough!

We need something more;

Belief and music,

Know the purpose of the score.

 

Something in Society

Just is not right.

Good will and best intentions,

Residue of the details of everyday life´s fight.

 

Meditate the laws of the universe

With higher thoughts than that of humanity.

Unfold banners and screens;

Belief and contention in sublime means.

 

Threads and cables that sustain us;

Flashes of energy that charges;

Drifting souls that encourage

With tender gentleness.

To help us better understand.

 

What to one person may be an escape,

To another is a haven found land.

 

 

 

A TRUE POEM!

 

A SITE

 

(By: Karla Wagener, on August 28, 2020)

Last night in my dreams

I went to a place where

One goes to after death, after all…

 

Suddenly, I shook gently

And woke up

With the beautiful, wonderful memory

Of existence from beyond.

 

It left me with an incredible

Feeling of hope

And a special new charge of energy.

 

I nearly stayed there,

In a place where

One goes to after death, after all…

 

But was briskly awoken,

As if some source insisted

There is still a needed purpose

To transmit good humor.

An impulse that never disappoints concerning the future shook me gently.

 

Enlightenment!

 

Better Days!

 

OUT OF THE BOX  

(By: Karla Wagener on September 20, 2020)

In healing, resist the synthetic remedies;

Using natural reliefs when viable.

Preventative care comes as a first course.

Open up to those who have diverse insights,

Thus warding off what is worse.

 

Release animosity,

Searching the wounded soul´s coaxing.

For the answer is not outside;

It is deep within.

Complimenting time with breath,

Avoiding conflict and personal interest.

 

With hope that believes even in the darkest hours

In the masters´ teachings,

Poetry,

The Psalms,

A tender smile

Or a simple, gentle touch.

 

Look forward, Look up!

And why not?

A sad song and a glass of wine in a tattered cup.

 

Then transmit out and about

 The significant peace and joy

 Found ardently inside.
