when sweet, bitter, sour, salty, savory and meaty mingle
hearty rivers of saliva flow
mouths expectedly inhale each flavor
raucous stomachs delight in being fed
as every standout bite is relished
taste buds are gleefully entertained
by this colorful and appetizing feast

when it all comes together just right
we are satiated

In The Mundane Moments

Published on February 6, 2021 by Susi Bocks9 Comments

i take a step back to refocus
ordinary tasks beckon
i watch silently, attentively
as the rivulets of water splash in the basin

thoughts begin to cascade in
jumbled and incoherent at first
yet sentences start to form
as the words assemble reasonably

quick, let me write that down
to capture the emotions and the intent
conveying my thoughts is such satisfaction
even in the boring routine of the day

Mindful Thoughts

Published on October 18, 2020 by Susi Bocks20 Comments

remnants of my dreams
flit into my consciousness
snippets of illusion
co-mingling
with the events of the day
finding myself
colliding into the past
to produce an array of emotions
feelings of being torn
in different directions

where do I find comfort
where is the wisdom
where is the adventure

everywhere and in all things
                ...especially in dreams

Feeling Safe

Published on March 24, 2019 by Susi Bocks8 Comments

I long for the restful places
where the pain
is expelled or soothed
every thought on paper
brings a downturn of
painful emotions
an uplifting
into understanding
and peace
from hurtful emotions
a broadening
of my horizon
when I let go of
expectations
easing into serenity
and calm
finding
my happy place
