Ariana Cherry Poems

'Stopping in midthought to take a break. Those sweet temptations...
Spectacular.'

That bitter-sweet tempting taste of a reality not so real.
...

When I was young, I lived in a box
It was like any other home...
there were rules to follow
and we all ate at the table during dinner.
...

Down by the sandy and excluded beach, I witness an alive and glowing sunset.

Shielding my burning eyes from its blinding rays, I lean down on bended knee,
...

Into the midst, lies a flame of untold glories....
Just breathe...
Just breathe, and the night will go away.
...

Tonight, Lord, I say a prayer to you.
Before I lay my head down to sleep.
While I try to promise to myself,
That I dare not weep.
...

She awoke just a few moments after sunrise.
Feeling the wetness of morning dew sticking to her face
After a long sleep upon the cold grassy ground.
...

If I could be an animal for the day,
And sweep away the stress of the busy human way,

I might decide to be a graceful horse.
...

When I lay myself to sleep at night,
Sometimes the questioning things that I see
through the depths of my mind
May seem just not quite right.
...

I’m so tired...
I could use a cup of coffee to get me wired-
With lots of caffeine and perhaps a bite of chocolate or two-
You know what I mean...
...

Through the trees,
There’s a world beyond you and me…
Up above through the clouds and past the sun,
And home beyond the farthest galaxies.
...
