A mighty oak fell
Centuries go unnoticed
Roots of time will tell

Clockwork
~
By day I write
and hide from night
By night I hide from myself
That’s when the demons appear
escaping their hidden shelf
~
They spill my ink
won’t let me think
I’m forced to quit too soon
Then I’m left with nothing to do
until the setting moon
~
The sun will rise
to blurry eyes
And off again I’ll venture
I’ll try to have a brighter day
But darkness remains unsure

Idiot Savant

My goal’s now halfway.
I write in rhyme all the time.
Nothing’s good to say.

Await sunny skies
Awaiting truth that’s a lie
All’s waiting to die

Buckle Up

Harness happiness
Bound with joy or tears shall fall
Smiles support us all

Dots to Dash

When dominoes fall
patterns arrange, something’s gone
while something is made

Stone Cold Memories

Pebbles skipped, rings rise
Waves wander to greet the skies
Pebble’s lost, what is gained?

A Sunday paper poet
Filling in the blanks

Searching for the perfect rhyme

One Life Stand

To hatch, toil and feed
Dangers lurk, survivors breed
Spawning death, life freed

No Strings Attached

Often a fine line
separates arrogance from
insecurity

Inevitable Surprise

Early morning chill
tweets subside with fallen leaf
Summers’ fall, Falls’ rise

Non-Objective

Is fiction abstract
fantasy or objective
non-reality?

dreams put to rest, minds wander
another days quest

Until inevitably
An I gets poked out

Exercising Imagination

limped home, crawled to bed

Batman, why’s Robins eggs blue?
It’s because of you!

As Goes the Duck
What eats like a bug
and flies like a bug, yet not?
It’s a humming-bird.

Sun Awakens
Victorious star the moons plight
Peaking from the blanket of night
Blank sheets warmly beckon askew
Water boils, beans grind, minds brew
Sheets fill blank to dark with light
*
Air surrounds all with bright
Life returns to deadened street
Sound returns to lively feet
Sun awakens to night’s sleep
Darkness shallow, day is deep

No Turn
.
We slash and burn
For what we yearn
Drilling holes, no concern
Spending time we didn’t earn
Death devours, we don’t learn
Once gone there’s no return
Replaced we’ll be by roach and fern
