Theodora (Theo) Onken Poems

Bouquets of lavender and babys breath-

'Neath a warming tangerine Spring sun-
...

Indigo crisp is her personality-
As she breathes in the day...
Just another Indigo gal? -no...
Who is on her knowing way....
...

Deep downside of The River--
Near the cliffed ravine---
Lays a silver feather...
Left behind by the Graven Queen;
...

Is made of parcment paper
Manilla envelopes shade
The sun
Once a fortress made of
...

I pound the concrete
Way too wired to sleep;
In just the ecstacy of it all
And the brillant colours of Fall;
...

May bloomed brilliant...
Wide eyed in blue skies
Dancing in daffodils and tulips
It's breeze-a gentle fragrance of mixtures
...

Swift footed- manical Zeus...
Cuts through ones flesh with his sword-
Ordaining the happenings of his legion
Leaving the God Apollo-less adored;
...

The Spring sky beckons
Through clatter of hailstones spent
Thunderstorms are extensions of Heaven
Quenching the Earth-God's raindrops spent;
...

A gentle trill comes through the breeze
A warbler sings its song
'Tis the Deity's Golden Rhapsody
How could such beauty e'er be wrong?
...

Running free with your heartbeat -
Running away from the bad dreams -

Embraced in your sweet arms -
...
