Why do the clouds crowd
Blot out the life-giving sun
And make days dreary?

In the quiet
My mind howls
If I could ride a boat along
If I could ride a boat along
The endless stream of time
And listen to the eerie song
It sings bereft of rhyme
I wonder what wonders I’d see
And who I would become
Were I from this spacetime-point free
To with the time-stream hum
10/4/2021 – a haiku
I find myself lost
Pining after your presence
Until you come home
10/2/2021
With fevered wanting I look in your eyes
As desp’rately I wish to hold you tight
Look now past all that makes up my disguise
My true, unfettered love is in your sight
10/1/2021
Give me a crackling fire
The stars above
Animal sounds all round
Give me my loves
A quick-witted word
Laughter reaching high
Give me all this
And I
Will smile
9/30/2021 – a haiku
Sorry it’s late. You get two poems today!
Walking by the shore
I smell salt spray on the air
And so my mind calms
9/29/2021
By cobbled stone did I walk
In boots worn and torn
To see you there
9/28/2021
Ever doubt plagues my thoughts
What if my eyes deceived me?
What if my ears were lying?
What if the words I’ve written
Mean little more than naught?
9/27/2021 – a haiku
I find secret scars
Etched in corners of your soul
And love you yet more
