Unusual Analogies
by Marijo Phelps Unsaved It's an old, solid, well built house But the reaching fingers of the Wind Curl around thru the door frame, Under the window pane and in the Fire place flue I pray that the wooing wind Of your life giving Holy Spirit Can triumph Beyond her methodically Constructed barricade Soon, Jesus, soon. Perceptions You came on with the strength of a cloud Thinking you spoke with cymbalic loudness When what came out was fluffy white nothingness It sounded definitive and positive to you But other ears didn't hear it that way Maybe it would be best to leave with silence That way no one could tell for sure how loud it was. Ripples You splashed a stone Across the mirror surface Of my life For a moment It became vividly alive And still I sense Unseen ripple overlapping ripple Of the impression you've Made upon my mind Indelible, even though you've gone. Totally Guarded I flew by your underground windowless room today Hoping to get a glimpse of you again But the curtains were drawn And the shutters closed Over the solid wall beneath, Yet I was deluded into thinking I might have seen you Had the shutters and curtains not been there.
