Dew drops

On a string of grass
All I ask

Is that you carry me gently

Observations from nature

Homophone

My head is full of ideas
Of can nots, and will nots
And should nots

My hair is full of knots

Just knots.

The shape that was you

Moments before sleep
I see shadows
Dance before
My eyes
And hope to catch the traces
of the shape that was you

I don’t know if I’m dreaming

Innermess

Carry the burden
And keep it
Hidden

We are all
Fighting our disasters
Within

Inspired by a chapter title in a book

Itch

The poem
Groaned
and
Nagged
and
Itched
until
It got writ!

So I post
a success and
you respond with
Fiery praise and
I respond with
Gratitude and now
Theres nothing to
Do expect wonder
How you are
And not ask

And wonder if
More will come?

The awkward space

Falling

-

I don’t think we fear falling
how can we fear falling
we fall all the time
apart
and
into place

-

Whether we’re falling in love or flat on our faces. It’s not the falling that scares us, it’s our fear of change, of the consequence, of what comes after.
