Sometimes I squint
To smudge the world
Within my mind
Then paint upon
The softened scene
A different
Kind of magic

In the everyday
It’s the moments spent
With the ones we love
Which make our hearts lighter
The moments better
The living sweeter
It’s the moments spent
With the ones we love
Which make our hearts lighter
The moments better
The living sweeter
Gravity
I see you
Seeing me
As she sees me
And he sees someone
No one else sees
Seeing me
As she sees me
And he sees someone
No one else sees
And I wonder
What you wonder
About what I wonder
While he wonders
About whom I wonder
All this seeing
And not seeing
All this wondering
About wondering
It all turns
Upon its tail
While all along
The water falls
With a noisy whoosh
The flow always down
Gravity draws all to Earth
Still we are always free
In our myriad ways
To see what we will see
All the while wondering
Just what is up
Joyful Blues
I enter a world
Of delicious azures
Delightful turquoise
And jolly royals
Of delicious azures
Delightful turquoise
And jolly royals
Which gets me
To wondering
How is it thought so awful
To get the blues
Quiet ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #189
In the small hours of the night
Somewhere between the last “sweet dreams”
And the alarm clock’s insistent chatter
I like to go out into the city
Somewhere between the last “sweet dreams”
And the alarm clock’s insistent chatter
I like to go out into the city
These quiet hours
In the quiet streets
Shared by a few other strays
When being alone in my own skin
Offers a kind of camaraderie with other lone souls
Being alone in their own skin
Past Imperfect Present
In this grand sweep of history
Stand I
Stand I
A figure out of time
A being out of context
Trying to understand
Reasons from another reason
All I know
In the end
Are these columns
Carved from red stone
Their perfect geometry
Constructed in an imperfect world
Just as the world
Ever is
Just as I
Ever am
