I write what I feel…

The Colour of Light

The blackest black absorbs the light

Yet the light pierces the dark as a spear

Can puncture the flesh of man;

Contradiction, oxymoron, paradox,

Seemingly…

Darkness is the shroud of evil

And light the revelation of purity ~~

What simplicity… could it be…?

I am a middle-aged South African woman, living in Johannesburg. I began writing poetry towards the end of May 2010. I love animals – sometimes more than people! I am back after a break. Thanks for still being here, if you are! Missed you! xxx

  5. I like the depth I see in this, Denise – & that Seemingly… just past the middle. Maybe I’m misinterpreting your intent, but I have lately wondered at the absoluteness of dichotomies, the closed-book way we have of designating into categories where nature has always told us they are not so fixed as that.
