memories shift and fade

aurora borealis

that magnetic field

that lives in our

eyes

still you see through

all the

colors of my mind

and untangle

reds mixed with blues

violets and darker

hues

unfettered

relentless

searching

that slowly

fills my soul

with

an order

I find

comforting

This poem is directly inspired by the Tuesday Writing Prompt Challenge at Go Dog Go Cafe. The prompt this time was “colors of the mind”. I am working through older prompts to help spark my imagination. Be sure to check out the challenge every Tuesday!  Photo by Jason Leung on Unsplash.

Liyona is an “average joe” kind of writer who likes to think about ordinary things and then write them down. Ever since she can remember, she has been rhyming words and creating lyric poems. During her college years, she took a more serious bent toward writing and started to post on her blog (The Life and Times of a Quirky Character.) Currently, she resides on the East Coast of the United States just north of the country’s capital.
