in my top drawer
beneath my socks – chocolate
winter sustenance
in my top drawer
beneath my socks – chocolate
winter sustenance
this new, ethical
recycled-plastic raincoat
lets the rain right through
why am I watching
same news on every channel
over and over
best time of the day
between sleeping and waking
these quiet moments
the first bird tweeting
cat purrs and dog breathes a sigh
the warmth of my bed
those waking moments
a passing plane, early traffic
tick-tock goes the clock
first cars of the day
squeeze by on the lane outside
sounds like it’s raining
over the Earth’s rim
a tentative sun peeps out
women clear rubble
as the leaves darken
sun assumes its autumn stance
oblique shadows fall
timeless afternoon
meeting friends of thirty years
sharing memories
I dream so I write ..
“Wings are an illusive notion. Some may possess them, but they are not very visible, and as for me, there isn’t the least sign of a feather.” -Amy Carmichael
