Since I could first string a sentence together, I've been a passionate storyteller. Creating worlds and characters and bringing forth emotions in myself and others bring me such clarity and purpose.

Dancing Slowly
Never slowing down / Dances with the ticking clock / Life a blip in time.
By Clare Shortal3 years ago in Poets
They do not Know Me.
Time will heal all wounds / Or at least that's what they say / They do not know me.
By Clare Shortal3 years ago in Poets
Running
All that's true of time / Is it's always running out / Slipping through my hands.
By Clare Shortal3 years ago in Poets
Elemental Elegance
Crisp, sparkling dewdrop / Dreams of dancing down the brook / Dribbles down the branch. Breathing on its own / Single blade of grass unfurls /
By Clare Shortal3 years ago in Poets
Elemental Evermore
Scorching as he goes / Wings of Icarus crumble / Dream incinerates. Hurricane and waves / Poseidon screams asunder /
By Clare Shortal3 years ago in Poets
Bones that Bear
Creaking with the wind Bones that bear the weight of worlds Stones that fall are tears
By Clare Shortal3 years ago in Poets
Brush the Sky
Ancient bones of Earth Eternally stretching up Barely brush the sky
By Clare Shortal3 years ago in Poets
Stones that Yearn to Fly
Stretching to the sky Ancient bones of the Earth cry Stones that yearn to fly
