I look north
At familiar trees
Memories of youthful sorrows

This Morning
A plane overhead
My tea slowly cools
Today, a funeral
Another week ends
Another week ends
Silence folds into my home
Rest is so welcome
Please consider giving this post a like.
Waiting in line
As I wait in line
To use demanded patience
Modern life’s demands
Fearing wakefulness
No I can’t escape
Dawn’s driving force pushing me
Fearing wakefulness
Truths sought
Within busyness
Moving past the illusions
Seeking out the truth
Time Flows
Time flows from the past
And the past feeds the future
Nourishing the now
Suburban Calmness
Suburban calmness
Peaceful silence flows with mist
Serenity heals
Dawn’s radiance saves?
So much invective
Rage’s intensity burns
Dawn’s radiance saves?
Light comes from within
Light comes from within
That deep-seated place of love
Hard to focus there
