555 Days... The Continuation

Welcome to 555 Days as a Poet by The Crafty Scribe

Back in 2010, I challenged myself to write a poem or a short verse a day, and post it to a blog. 555 Days as a Poet by The Crafty Scribe is the continuation of the experiment.

I gave myself 18 months to recover from the original daily blog postings, and now, I am ready to start it all over again. Although as I was beginning in the middle of the year, I thought 6 months was too short a time after my last experience.

"If I could complete a year of poems, how about 18 months?" I thought. I worked out that would be 549 days. I could have rounded it up to 550 to included New Years Day 2014, but then I thought I'd go 5 better... to 555 days.

Why 555? According to many spiritual teachers, the number 555 is a sign of change and the flow of energy. I thought it related to the blog. I spent a year writing a poem every day, then rested for 18 months. Now the tide has turned. It's time to begin the flow of words in my life again.

I'm not a trained poet, just an enthusiastic scribe wanting to create something new each day. I don't truly know my stanza from my meter, but I hope to improve and get my poetic license someday! Expect the weird, the strange and the inner workings of the Crafty Scribe's mind. Let's ride the waves once more.

Please pass on the blog address to all your verse and lyrical loving friends. I hope you will join me, and read my daily scribbling.

"Winds Turn" (Entry 538)

North winds turn to bound and ground.
East winds turn to whip air and rip.
South winds turn to light up the night.
West winds turn to moon’s tidal ride.

*********

Thinking of everyone in the UK suffering through these gale force winds. Stay safe and warm.

"Angels Brilliance" (Entry 519)

Angels fly around.
Energies brilliance abound.
Trust in their hope and authority.
Hold out your hands to what’s meant to be.

"Poetic Devotion" (Entry 411)

Feel your spirits pulse and thrill,
Rejoice in empathy even when still. 
Be compassion and all poetic. 
Be this and more, not unsympathetic.

Give and take all emotion. 
Live with enthusiasm and devotion. 
Experience all there is and can be. 
Enjoy the moments. That's life, you see!

"A Raw Silence" (Entry 388)

Some thing's enter this life with a roar. 
A human baby's cry that parents adore. 
First breath of announcement or even anguish. 
New born arrival comes with its own language. 
A New Year enters by fireworks and bells. 
Artificial time's passing with songs, chants and yells. 

Then there's those that enter by way of silence. No sound. 
Like true time shown without whisper by that wrinkle newly found. 
Nor does the spider on its web and it weaves. 
Or death which enters when the last sigh leaves. 

Then do we dare step beyond to see who are the silent that enter?
Like Angels, the unseen, who live at soul's centre. 
The hosts of energy, love is their being. 
They whisper in the quiet - all-knowing, all-seeing.

"Let It Begin" (Entry 294)

Energy organic.
No panic.
Let it flow.
Enjoy. Let go.
Be at one.
More to come.
Inhale it in.
Let it begin.

"A Creative Fight" (Entry 287)

Battle forward.
On and on.
Creativity - gone?
Do you believe that?
Is that truth's reality?
Surely it's not what's meant to be.
Buzz on.
Increase energy.
Live for life,
And, as they say,
Art for heart's sake.
