And this morning
The memories started
Moments frozen pictures
Mostly laughing and
Smiling I don’t
Remember the sad
Parts why is
That we had
So so many
Maybe that’s why
It seems that
We were together
Only for a
Brief time now
Category: Morning
UsThereThen (for Scotty)
And then from
Afar a voice
An old friend
Wishing me tidings
My heart sang
And my soul
Filled like a
Cistern of love
Oh so long
It had been
Since I heard
Your voice bringing
Me back to
Yesterday like reading
Old letters and
Remembering us there
ShyClouds
Crimson clouds scrape
The sky like
Silky feather dusters
Or long thin
Fingers of socialites
Having just used
Their compact uplit
By an early
Dawn they beam
Chagrin in colors
Of red and
Orange making my
Early day glow
AnotherMorningPoem
The sun hits
The tree tops
Like foamy crests
On ocean waves
All white and
Rolling as the
Sun moves higher
Into the sky
Tree trunks lean
Like firewood against
Each other and
Oh the smell
Of earth bathes
My nostrils there
A damp coolness
Like a refrigerator
Door opening in
July on the
Forest floor as
Dew streaks all
The car windows
ThisMorning
Cardinals sing from
Bushes and treetops
Calling their forever
Mate that’s bobbing
From line to
Post like a
Telegraph message morning
Hasn’t arrived though
You can see
It’s puffs of
Yellow like a
Steam locomotive just
Beyond the hill
As no more
Than a thousand
Crickets coming off
Third shift wish
A warm goodnight
