6/1/2023 – a haiku

On June 1, 2023 By adamcallahan117In Haikus, Short PoemsLeave a comment

Fire burns within me
Forming a song I don’t know
But will come to know

5/31/2023 – words fall

On May 31, 2023 By adamcallahan117In Free Verse, Short PoemsLeave a comment

Words fall
Like rain

Down a page
Down a street

Some crumple
Some fall apart
Some take root and grow

Yet words fall
All the same

5/30/2023 – a tiny speck

On May 30, 2023 By adamcallahan117In Free Verse, Short Poems2 Comments

In dappled sunlight, list’ning to the breeze
I sit in wonder at the vibrant life
The chitt’ring birds and tall, triumphant trees
That make a tiny speck of human strife

On Mondays I wish

For something better to come

In the days ahead

5/27/2023 – for an age

Let’s come back as trees

Strong
Quiet
Regal

Roots intertwined
Branches entangled

Holding to one another
For an age

5/26/2023 – how often

On May 26, 2023 By adamcallahan117In Free Verse, Short PoemsLeave a comment

How often do I think of you?

As often as the breezes blow
As often as the tree frogs sing
As often as the new sprouts grow
As often as the birds take wing

A fast-rising wind
Blows quick across the landscape
And all comes alive

5/24/2023 – that silence

I love no silence more

Than silence with you

5/23/2023 – break the wheel

Above the crashing human sounds
Beyond the grey of block and steel
A different, brighter truth abounds
There where we go if we can break the wheel

I find it vexing:
Even over a cursed day
Bright is the sunrise
