Poem: Ruminate

Ruminate by Princess Yvonne Dumas 

Sometimes I like to sit in silence

To ruminate about my day 

And wonder if perhaps I’ve fallen

Far away from dreams of yesterday. 

Am I forging forward on a path, 

Dark and thicket-drowned?

Am I pushing beyond the storms,

An ambivalent buoy right offshore?

And yet, it’s possible that I may be

Something more to you than me. 

Now there’s a thought, 

New as the day,

Never to have entertained me before. 

Sometimes I like to sit in silence

To ruminate about my life

And wonder if perhaps I’ve touched you

And not once lived a day of truth.
