Kestril's Rhythms and Groove: November 2014

Magpie Tales Nov 30 2014

This is my offering inspired by the current prompt over at Magpie Tales

There are bits of me hidden from myself.

I’m sure you’ve noticed them too;

but you don’t mind it.

And now your mystery is woven into mine.

I like that very much.

Do you mind the strangeness?

Odd… shouldn’t I be bothered by this?

And even more oddly, I don’t think I care,

about those things we can’t see yet.

And all that is regular, reasonable,

rational,

fades into nothing

against Love’s chaos.

Go to Sleep Child (Nov 2014)

Go to sleep little one

The water’s been spilt

The clothes have been mussed

But Daddy and I shall love you still

And the fingernail moon floats peacefully over your world

There is no need to fear

Go to sleep little one

Clean white sheets surround you

A roly-poly dog snuffles nearby

Mistakes have been made

But it’s just a little water

But nothing so permanent to make you cry

Mommy’s coffee and Daddy’s cream

Blend beautifully in your world

Why should it not be so elsewhere?

Though there are things being broken that cannot be mended

And more than water spilled under this scythe moon

The cacophony of electric birds keening

Need not trouble you

It is elsewhere

At least tonight

Go to sleep
