Rainy afternoons

She was staring out the window
On a rainy afternoon
She liked jazz
but he always played blues

Tune after tune

So it was blues she listened to
With mock appreciation
for the records in the room

A lazy lovers weekend
with books and plants and puff

She smiles every so often
But she knows she’s had enough

What if there's a cure for this broken remedy.

And if there's was one why didn't the world came with it already.

If I wrote you a song would you read it.

If I wrote a song ahout you would sing to me.

If I wrote you a book would you care about it.

If I wrote you a poem would you know it.

But, If I wrote a poem about you would you miss it?

In case you hadn't noticed
And if it was not explained
The world spins on its axis
It couldn't be more plain.

It often spins in circles
Leaving echoes there behind
Small arcs of light and shadow
Lighting up my restless mind.

It speaks in thoughts and whispers
Like wreaths of mist and smoke
A wreath of faith and science
Like wheels of spinning spokes.

These are the days we follow
A spiral staircase heaven bound
Winding through the cloud-banks
A long way upwards from the ground.

Final Goodbye
 Apr 2020 Yann
Shadow
walking this earth
searching for the sunrise
everywhere I went
I saw your blue eyes

some said you were
nothing but a dream
I held you once for
a moment, it seems

here I stand, I'm facing the end
knowing well, soon death will descend
I see your face as it was that day
so close to me where I lay

from town to town
I fought for what was right
in our love's name
I stuck to the light

the darkness called
to me everyday
you were the only thing
that kept it at bay

here I stand, I'm facing the end
knowing well, soon death will descend
I see your face as it was that day
so close to me where I lay

there's only time to
whisper one last goodbye
smiling at you, my
life departs with a sigh....

The moon peered through the clouded sky
as sun set on the mountains high
she wondered if they knew below
the things she'd seen in all her glow

the scurry of this human race
caught in circles fast embrace
locked within their sinful ways
repeat rewind replay each day

once she'd felt their softest touch
pin ***** of a flag pole ******
marked as if they owned her now
such foolish man in foolish hour

wars, floods, pandemic woes
shifting lands seasides flows
burning landscapes ice age fraught
man oh man what next be brought

the moon peered through the clouded sky
weeping clouds her only cry
heal man of earthly woes
heal so i may once more glow
Deep in thought
She questions life
What’s her purpose?
Where’s her drive?
Is she at the mercy of God’s decree?
Or will she overcome triumphantly?
She shouts towards heaven
She begs and pleads
She needs the answers
She now seeks
Overhead, unbelievably
The clouds form, collectively
The clouds are drenched
In an orange hue
Swirling above the ocean blue
With her faith in doubt
And her desires gone
She takes some comfort in
The break of dawn

Identifiably
