The outside world disappears
But it still sees us

Poets in a bar
Each one writes of the other
And drinks to themselves

A dream never lies
Yet the truth’s not easy to find
Though all in the mind

Shifting Priorities
.
Riding bikes for years
From just one to many gears
Liked the red one best
***
Priorities Made
.
My lonely workshop
It has tools galore, though my
Pens and pads used more
***
Sporting Priorities
.
Soon the pond will freeze
Kids enjoy their skating rink
What do the fish think?

Our hope for a future bright
Sharing sleepless nights

I write in rhyme all the time.
Nothing’s good to say.

Awaiting truth that’s a lie
All’s waiting to die

Nature’s voice beckons sunrise
New day dew glistens

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

Waves wander to greet the skies
Pebble’s lost, what is gained?

Dangers lurk, survivors breed
Spawning death, life freed

Is fiction abstract
fantasy or objective
non-reality?

dreams put to rest, minds wander
another days quest
