I see you
others might think
you're looking at the sky
but I know
you're moving through memories
stories in constellations

you're crying
because there is
nothing new to see

love used to be
so easy

this is hard

so alone
you want a witness
the only one
you can't have

I know
I know

Under the
umbrella of
darkness,
mind drifts
to
choppy
seas,
capricious
outings
into
tidal waves,
drowning
daylight
with endless
eddies
and upheavals

#sensewrds 277 #poetry

no tenderness escapes us
when we lay aside our pride
hiding among the branches
to seek a simple hop aside

reclined in this place away
away from eyes that seek
wrapping ourselves together
to never become so weak

#SenseWrds Prompt 277

Where my pen went today
to making sense
momentarily

words become thoughts
thoughts philosophies
to make sense of the senseless
in a vast
indifferent
space

we write
un-write
rewrite

reimagining
our destiny
kneeling in the dirt
planting tendrils
of renewal
blankets of
autumn's debris
protecting moonflowers
for spring

#SenseWrds Prompt 277

Time flew
and threw its irony
between a railway station
and an airport
And no one laughed

#Sensewrds 276

Sussurus of a thunder
From beyond the yonder
Reverberating in my bones
Like silent prayer
Soothing my frayed nerves
Calming my mind
Luring it to a beautiful reverie
Of you...

Off the top of my head
I imagine this
we're caught in a downpour
we smile, we kiss

#Sensewrds #276
Improvised
daydream
stormy

Submerged like a sunken city
I am not found
Hidden and Holy
Waiting in dappled light
Listening to the stammering
of old incantations
In my murmuration—
I am dissolved

#poetry #sensewrds 276

Tentative on padded toes
with who knows what feline intent
approaches the outstretched hand
Salty sweet maybe sticky
hidden by bright wrapping
a trick or a treat they say
maybe maybe a favorite
Like lightning into the sack
and off at a run
into the night a howl
wonder of creation

#sensewrds 276

#sensewrds 275 peeking susurration hollow

Locust-fed dragons,
crickets in dry yellow grass—
object permanence.

Where my pen went today

to the crossroads where life-changing decisions are made.
Choices which are irreversible.
…
The past is a prologue of the future
omens signposting today,
and the choices that point the way.
