A Poem by Kelly Scheppers

Lonely Voyager

 

 

 

i’ve put an ocean between us

an unchartered course

of half moon promises

my heart remains in absolution

a lonely  voyager.

You always say so much with so few words. Well done, again.

Mutual admiration - we should start a society. :-)
it seems as if the relationship is getting more divided, as you use your words carefully to describe a rift as big as the ocean, not knowing yet what will transpire on your new course, "uncharted course"
so now you are alone but willing to forgive "my heart remains in absolution" ...this is beautiful, with so much important emotions in a brevity poem....
Excellent!
Best, B

If you can release the anger and hurt and forgive, then you are on the way to healing. It is a lonely path and it can take time. Been there and done that Kelly. This five liner is beautiful in its brevity. It says so much and touches the reader on an emotional level.

Writing surely can be a catharsis Kelly. You compose beautifully.
A lovely Poem of forgiveness… I always Observe the Moon now that we moved into an old two-story House with all the Bedrooms upstairs with Large Windows … quite an Observatory all year round. A half Moon is a Promise. Love , Pat

dear Kelly... I just felt compelled that a half moon is a Promise. gently, Pat
Is it ok that I am here first? Too bad because like a gift under the tree, a new poem by you is something to be excited about. A short and simple poem that conveys a message and a feeling that this reader easily feels. The distance between, the silent miles, the shadows and courses that follow and lead, the night when a moon is the only visitor that smiles on this lonely voyage. Your pen scrobes light as a feather as your soft poem echoes melodically across the page.
