Wordless Wednesday - Kaleidoscope

This photo of a tulip was taken with my iPhone.

I am sending this photo to Wordless Wednesday at Project Alicia.

Kaleidoscope

I wrote this poem in response to a prompt from my IRL writing group.  We were to write a poem that describes ourselves using the letters of our name.

Kaleidoscopic visions consume you as
Each turn of the tube brings you closer to

Living authentically

Loving wholeheartedly

Yearning for patterns in red, yellow and blue

Anxiety is your chloroform

Numbness fading

Navel gazing

Awareness woven from threads of pain

Looming words

Longing to be heard

Allowing yourself to stand naked because

Reticence is no longer becoming and then

Dressed in a flowing shift of consciousness

Your hands caress the fine fabric lovingly

Cherishing your new garments that are

Edged in patterns of red, yellow and blue
