At dVerse Mish is hosting poetics with an invitation to write a poem using three words or more from a selection. My choices are: Orenda (mystical force), Querencia (place from where strength is drawn) and Isolophilia (preference fro solitude).
dVerse Poets - Poetics - There's a word for that
"They simply never understand, do they, that sometimes solitude is one of the most beautiful things on earth?" Charles Bukowski
Beyond This Moment
Orenda
down the slopes of
mountain minds and
valley redoubts of no intention,
comes opportunity,
that moment of desire,
a la querencia,
the turning of soul for home
in a quietude of frame,
longing in sighs for an end to
rivers of noise while
rejoicing in shivers of gaze,
a patient isolophilia that sits
so lightly it slips easily past
our defences and undoes
the palisades of the heart,
inviting dreams and other worlds.
