Christmas lights shine bright
Only pictures of the child
and the cat see them.

Insomnia
The sirens seek out the lost,
rising in anticipation but wandering
off desperate now but quiet.
I lie away most of the night
waiting...
Going over what I forget to add
to the grocery list.

The sadness wasn't what she ordered
but it came with the salad.
I like the lemons with my water.

All the dirty thoughts - not the nasty kind -
buried my thoughts . . .

Did you forget something?
We truly care about you and want you to
be comfortable during your stay.
Make this your home away from home.
Yes, there is a penalty for early cancellation.
Did you forget . . .

Roaring beast wakes me
Smell of the room is subtle
I know this presence
The wetness is a sound of life
The darkness surprises me
Body aches from sleep

Soft fur cuddles my middle
and the music is distant but welcome.
Thoughts of tomorrows reunion are
dominate now and I yeild to them.
Rain and carlights reflect memories of

I pour out my drink
into the shrubbery
the ground is so thirsty
it cracks with ache.
I discard my sandwich
into the trash can
the world is so hungry
it laughs with anger.
The year has finally . . .

Heaven
Mere edge of reality
The golden leaf, wind, smile,
Who, what, where, when, why, how is it

Death is just one way...

Warm rain falls from dreams
I cry for the wound of nature
Who will take the love and
leave a spring flower?
Ice crystals adorn the crown
of winter. The truth . . .

I was reflecting about all those I care about as I drove home tonight and then saw this poem - it fit the mood. This is a famous poem but can be hard to read...the key is to read it slowly and perhaps . . .

I could see the tree flowering
or at least the Angel could.
I could feel the chill breeze
or that is what they called it.

So remote and near at the same . . .

Train whistle
Ground rumbles
The TV talks with a hiss
Little green eye on the speaker stares
The evening cold moves on my ankles
Water needs to be shut off
Fingers of the wind plays the chimes in . . .
