RIP
The prayer you say every night between the sheets
Will be answered one day
When you least expect it
Like a knife
Cutting a letter
Open.

Nothing comes easy
Even easy things don’t come easy
Hard times
The midnight hour
Midnight is a turning point
White clouds of happiness
Await us

ORDERING SOMETHING ON THE PHONE
I said
You have a pretty voice, and
She said
What can I do for you?
I said
Keep talking.

Reflections in a golden eye
Shadows of I in
Banks of fear
The Quest abandoned
All the remains fall where they may
In royal indifference
I am lighter than I ever was #poetry #poems #poetrycommunity #poetrywriter #PublishedPoet

THE SECRET
The secret, whispered into an
Ear by the wind, says you
Will never know me till you
Become like me and let this go in
One ear and out the other.

A BEGGAR’S ASHES
Who is going to keep my ashes
When I go?
Childless
Familyless
Friendless
Who is going to keep my ashes
On the kitchen table
And think of me
Each morning with breakfast? #poetry #poetrywriter #poetrycommunity #PublishedPoet

A VISIT
I visited my childhood home after 60 years
I sat outside and hoped I hoped I would...
I don't even know what I hoped for.
A young Asian girl passed by on a skateboard.
My first love was Asian.

YOU COME TO IT
You come to it with such energy
Sit there
And begin to think.
Then it goes all wrong.
Can we draw more than one lesson
From this? #poetry #poetrylovers #poetrywriter #poetrycommunity #PublishedPoet #poem

THE CAUSE
Kill me or set me free
I did it because I worshipped thee
If this is true it cannot be
What I thought was you was really me #shortpoetry #poetry #poem #poetrycommunity #poetrywriter #PublishedPoet

RIDDLE It’s always the same.
Even when it’s not the same It’s the same.
Is there really a difference between what is the same and what is not?
and if so,
please don’t give me the same answer as last time. #poetry #poem #PublishedPoet #poetrycommunity

MUSE
Sing thru me
Make it an original song
Don’t leave me
On this dusty road
With nothing but a dry throat
And desire #poetry #poem #poetrycommunity #poetrywriter #PublishedPoet

Black and white
The perfect contrast
Fresh snow clinging
To dark branches
A winter gift

THE EYE
The Eye looks outward and sees glare.
The Eye looks inward and sees a murky pool.
The Eye closes and sees blackness,
which is the most comforting sight of all.

THE BEGINNING
Memory adheres to the brain
Like grains of sand to a shell.
And when the shell is washed by the Sea,
memory disappears and the brain
Is born once new. #poetry #poem #micropoetry #poetrycommunity #PublishedPoet

POOF
The sun,
Straining to remain hot.
The season blowing it out
Like a birthday candle. #poetry #micropoetry #poetrycommunity #poetrywriter #PublishedPoet
