Bring me your ghosts
Bring me your shadows
Bring me what frightens and haunts
And tell me a tale
Here beside the fire
That we might see specters in the flames

1/15/2024 – a haiku
Little can faze me
When I hold your hand in mine
And all is quiet
1/13/2024 – what I want to hear
Have ever I seen, there upon the bright horizon line
More than what I expected, more than my desiréd sign?
1/12/2024 – a better me
I can but be what I’ve in me to be
And yet such promise can feel unfulfilled
If I cannot listen when I am stilled
To that which could make me a better me
1/11/2024 – a haiku
Wind comes whistling down
Bringing with it frosty air
And a wish for spring
1/10/2024 – whispers along Time
I was bewitched beneath the starry sky
By all the ancient stories reaching me
From places so unfathomably high
Their whispers along Time are all we see
1/9/2024 – burned
Bury me in the ashes
Of the world we burned
1/8/2024 – a (squirrel) haiku
She gathers the nuts
Though she barely grasps what for
Until the spring thaw
1/6/2024 – wishing
To wish upon a distant star
Is wishing back in time
1/5/2024 – listen, hear
So begins catch-up poem number 2…
Allow me this
That I might find
Within the swirling winds of time
Allow me but a moment to
Listen, hear what the Fates will do
