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.

Dec 29 2013 Music of Life
Music playing in my head
Life so full yet still so dead
Waiting, looking, finding you
Sad song tells a story trueA face appears; who could you be
An angel or demon here with me
The music stopped; a new melody begins
I’ve searched all over;… Continue reading -
Dec 29 2013 Thought for a Thought
Beyond the beyond, is never far
Lurking somewhere in every heart
Tempting fate as never before
A thought for a thought; My friend you areAnd in my mind, I sometimes see
Alternate choices that could be
But in my life, I cherish thee
For friendship is… Continue reading -
Dec 29 2013 Beyond the Beyond
Sweet sentiments of sensual seductions
Monopolize my every thought of you
Quickened pulse with every word
Of hidden symbolic meanings ensuedAnd mental images of secret places
In which an unbound mind may wander
Heighten my awareness of what could be
Within this storm of turbulent thunderLooking… Continue reading

Dec 29 2013 Addiction
As the bloody tears caress my cheeks
I see my friend what you have done
For fault lies within you but you are blind
To play with death is all but funThe path you follow is dark and reckless
Destined to lead you to… Continue reading -
Dec 29 2013 Wait for Love
She blazed into your life and opened
Your heart and mind to every whim
And every desire she stirred within
You my friend…. and thenShe drank of your body and your soul
Drained you of your essence
Devouring what she could for herself
And you become… Continue reading -
Dec 29 2013 Human Condition
Tears are dropping in my mind
This plastic smile is all you see
Digital images of a love once had
And then you tempt me with eternityForgotten moments play again
Reversing all I thought I knew
Expanding and contracting, never ending
A universe alive inside of… Continue reading -
Mar 26 2013 Winter’s Mindgarden
Winter winds well up from within
This once vibrant, beating heart
Like fields of flowers slowly dying
Summer’s warmth must first departTo smell a rose, you must bare the brunt
Of winter’s harsh, cold treacherous bite
And brave the frigid, freezing rains
That pour from your… Continue reading -
Jul 17 2007 The Pain Inside
Hidden behind these eyes is a pain
That no one will ever truly understand
Shamefully, I veil them beneath my mirth
And carry on as though all things are grand
Misfortunate events and bad choices
Are all that I have to bring to this table
For… Continue reading
