Jo R. Escher Poems

Perception and attitude of an individual offer insight into the question 'is the glass half empty or half full? '
I also believe that personality and past experience affect ones thought on this.
Not forgetting spirituality and priority as they intertwine with the final answer.
...

A silent thief that steals day after day

UN-merciful and UN-relenting
...

I hear the words you never speak

I sense the pain you never show
...

Bittersweet mist

Consecrate this destitute union
...

Phantom mist splintering the night

I know you watch, waiting
...

Someone spoke well of my character yesterday

The words even now still melt into my soul
...

To find one in the stillness when evening light has faded away

Searching out the bittersweet hallways of blessed peace
...

Quietly she will wait

Transfixed eyes filled with ravens dust
...

Seasons of time hang in tender balance
In consenting submission to wither and fade
Light and darkness barter hide and seek
Butterfly, how amazing your procession
...

Twilight reveals the morning dew
As I descend into this secret place
Long have I been a guardian here
Held in bondage through immaculate charm
...
