A humming
Scratches at my ears
A sparse harmony
Long forgotten
Without beginning or end
It lingers
On dissonant tones
Yet it promises
In its quiet moments
To bring music
To alter the world

10/23/2023 – a haiku
I must remember
As I dream of horizons:
I want for nothing
10/21/2023 – shimmer
As yellow go the leaves
And cool goes every breeze
And grey conquers the skies
I wish for summer rains
And dry heat from the south
And sun that takes the air
And makes it shimmer
10/20/2023 – moves me
My heart moves me
To listen to silent winds
To read hidden words
To learn untaught lessons
10/19/2023 – a haiku
If I free my heart
From the shackles of my mind
Will I breathe at last?
10/18/2023 – silent forest
When oft I walk beneath the boughs
Of those elder than I
I hope to hear the songs they sing
All while growing so high
10/17/2023 – specters of me
I walk amidst shades
Specters of me
What I was
And the thousand ways
I could have been
10/16/2023 – a haiku
Unburdened I walk
When I focus on the now
Deaf to the future
10/14/2023 – free me
Free me from myself
That I might fly high
That I might touch the sky
Unshackled from my own mind
10/13/2023 – faraway tongues
For me, I ask the wind to bring
Words from the farthest shore
The ones that clearly, brightly sing
Though I know not what for
