Inside these blank walls
Rain falls upon the skylight
I stare at a screen

SpringĀ
Spring’s signs are now here
Blossoms abundantly glow
Seattle’s rain wins
Oh, Monday
The drag of Mondays
Moving through the tedium
Reaching for the light
An Easter Message
As Easter message
Can we empty our own tombs?
Returning to life
This divided world
This divided world,
How do we come together?
For the common good
Looking at the Dawn
āDawn rises quickly
Or perhaps that’s just illusion?
The birds are singing
Rage’s DangerĀ
Danger in offended rage
Most toxic of poisons
Seeps into our marrow
Boiling, burning away joy
Leaving nothing by charred
Remains
A Suburban Evening
Suburban evening
Traveling under street lights
Quietude pronounced
Night arrivesĀ
night arrives calmly
darkness shrouding all my cares
dawn will come quickly
Oh, rest in the digital age
Sometimes rest is hard
Eyes glued to this tiny screen
Turn the device off!
