blogging, new page, about me

 Fly

Relaxing with a loud and annoying buzz -
He dances the last dance about the entire room -
Making his loudest cries - irritating me not enough
No action taken - not even as another paces about
Clinging to my body when it can - finding me vulnerable and distracted,
And He -- hungry - though less ominous than the elder.
Again, he spins, crying loudly and slapping the walls
There is a spring - sprung- unwinding in the frustration
of tears yet to flow
The younger to bite
The elder to die
A gray even tone blankets the sky -
Seeking to make the grave rightly heavy - and sullen -
Though ready for a breaking warm sun
Replacing the black dirt with a soft green grass.
These ever anxious divers consider again and again
as they deliver their messages of life
gone on past the dance or the song
and one last hurrah!! A call.. 
I hear it in the silence as this most obnoxious one
Goes silent - taking little bursts
Not yet.. Once more.. I'm not ready.. a flop flop flop -
And Two now pace upon my body, anxious for the rain.
Ouch!!

"The birds vanished in to the sky,
The last cloud drains away,
Then there were the mountain and me.
Until only the mountain remained."

these lines feel like celebrating and reflecting on the stimulating solace of piercing emptiness.

Life's lessons (probable) infusing certain delicate turbulence ,that is being treated with deep delight for its clinging trustworthiness.
Most meaningful "moments" of life have been definedly featured.

I'm quite impressed with your poetic skill Linda! There seems to be a deeper meaning beneath the words which have been teasing me without being entirely open...will need to come back again.
