Creative Expressions
Poetry by Bonny has been a lifelong endeavour of mine since I was a young girl. From the moment I learned to form sentences and rhyme words, I have communicated my thoughts and feelings through written expression. Having grown up with a lot of emotional and psychological struggles gave me much in-depth experience to draw from that helped to guide me in my writing. As I’ve grown older, I’ve found less of a need to express myself in poetry and have turned to other artistic expressions like Web & Graphic Design and sometimes even Photography.
Poetry is always at the heart of every expression and every emotion as life is like poetry in motion. I find the beauty in the most unusual places, embrace that beauty and draw life from each experience, allowing it to feed my creative energies. Growing older has also allowed me to outgrow many of the emotions that once drew me to the darker depths of artistic expression, providing me with the ability to experience life in a different and more uplifting way but within me is always the artistic energy that propels me to express myself through words and design.

Pieces of me now come together
A harmonious being of patchwork
Blending the fibers of my soul

Like conversations overheard
But keeping safe, what’s insideWondrous secrets lurk within
The windows show only a glimpse
Of the world beyond the darkened glass
This ever cycling mental eclipseHaunted memories dance beneath
The crumbling interior of my mind
Like… Continue reading -
Dec 29 2013 SAWEMA
Scented candles waxing my thoughts tonight
As I silently sit alone in this darkened room
Waiting for a brilliant thought that just might
Enchant my senses or possibly and entirely consume
My vividly taunting, hopeless imagination
A memory once paused perhaps might resumeMusic drifting softly… Continue reading
