Imaginary Garden

Today was my turn to write a poetry prompt over at the Imaginary Garden.  I wondered what to do?  Then the image of an ADMIT ONE ticket stuck in my mind. Lightening struck and it came to me.  A movie type prompt, one with two options. Either pick between using a movie title in your poem or using a famous movie quote. I offered a link to this site.  I wish I had written this ahead, so I could do my homework earlier.  I don't work this way.  So, here I am trying to figure out what speaks to me. I looove movies, who doesn't! It is such an unique art form, the music, the artistry, the acting, the story/writing, and the mood! Almost all of our senses are engaged. I can hear you, I know touch and taste. Most do get a snack and touch can happen, a hand squeeze or your significant other putting their arm around you or you them.   What is your favorite movie or quote?  Care to share?

I selected "Blade Runner"  I loved the quote and my husband and I were talking about this movie. I told him there was talk of it being redone.  This is not my favorite movie, but this quote attracted my attention and I really did like the movie. It was so intriguing for the time, it made it's debut~

Quote: "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near Tanhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain. Time to die."

Journey to the sea of stars
charted by mood, method and manner
Imagination links the eternal
Invasion of conscious thought
slays repressed guilt
flux of chaos
teaches human condition
order segments our traditions
I've seen things you people wouldn't  believe.
Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.
I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near
Tanhauser Gate. All those moments will
be lost in time like tears in the rain.
Time to die
to leave timeless appeal
reflected voyage
stops misguided memories
visit another planet
where darkness swirls and the sun shines
at midnight
take your bucket list to
the main garden gate
repair your silver scars.

This poem didn't reflect the movie. It was my own view of a day, I would rather be somewhere else.

Another take on the prompt:

"...And remember, my sentimental friend, that a heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others." Wizard of Oz


Red passion outlines yellow lies
hope grows in rows worked by vibrant green thumbs
Harvest has not dried out spirit
spring forward, do not fall back
journey onward to land of deepest dreams
where wind spins colored cotton
patches of courage bring one back to life
moon smiles at warrior's hour
A girl, heals from the inside
when trembling wisdom arrives.
GO teach
discover your
deepest fear
catch your breath
"...And remember, my sentimental friend, 
that a heart is not judged by how much you love,
but by how much you are loved by others."
