Tomorrow’s girl, searches still lonely
Pummelled since are the crystals in her dreams
Years coincide with a ragged remnant
Cloth eared days fall apart to form time’s open seams
Yesterday’s beginnings, faltering still slowly
Form the new backdrop of stars in her schemes
Life is refurbished by richer materials
Pins and needles still sharper in the raw edges unseen

Sew all your hopes and spin out the debris
To make fabric of purest silk fit for a queen
Stretch and make worthy the silken twine
Wrap yourself, and the battle scars around the satin and sheen
Yesterday cherishes and enriches your memories
Forms new tomorrow’s, tailored to your dreams
Life’s tapestry is threadbare for now, but only
You can sew the stitches and make a new one in between

Lu...this is a hopeful poem, tempered with caution, but no heartbreak in sight! Are you feeling all right?

All kidding aside, I like the theme of "pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start all over again." The images you use, as always, are exquisite. I'd end up quoting the entire poem, but I especially liked "Pummelled since are the crystals in her dreams;" "Sew all your hopes and spin out the debris / To make fabric of purest silk fit for a queen;" "Life’s tapestry is threadbare for now, but only / You can sew the stitches and make a new one in between." Gaahhh! Wonderful stuff! A really hopeful message with some great writing. Nice job.

Hahahahahahaha, Oh i love you Anita!! I missed your poetry for sure! I'm on a little commenting spree today, and I had to tell you how much your poetry means to me. I always get inspired reading your work, it's beautiful, even when the message isn't. Your writing just seems to flow so well, and it's odd but even though it doesn't show up like this i always imagine your work written in long flowing cursive writing.
