Rain again today
I like the misty fog
San Francisco. Baltimore.
Ireland. Seattle.

Just dailiness
No grand plans
No elevation
No battle

                    Rain

Talked to my son today
Gracias xie xie
Keep him right on track
Video games to play

Mother Mary May
Basketball hey hey
ACDC Back in Black
But silent is the Way

        No nay never nay

Dost thou call me fool, boy?

All thy other titles thou hast given away.
That thou wast born with.

Moon glow above my house
      Walking from my car
                  Floating

Stockholm to Helsinki
Just one afternoon
Lovely Lutheran Cathedral
Summer coming soon

South Riding, Virginia
In our kitchen Flaming June
Basketball with my middle son
He's the one who read Dune.

Taught Robert Frost to the tweens
Read them Things Not Seen
Fr. Greeley was kind to me
Billy Graham was mean

I miss basketball
I play for my team
Meister Eckhart's Without a Why
Rabbi Nahman's silent scream

Buried so deep
Excavating
Traveling the world
Waiting. Waiting.

Ice and snow
Vienna. Chicago.
Cordelia not King Lear
Othello not Iago

            Staunton!
