Dark Days
Dark days, it’s never light
I have the lights on all day
Night is starting to close in at four pm

Typical November
No sun, no moon, no stars

In shifts,
heads bowed.
The flickers of remembrance
softly stroked her hair,
Until the dousing of
the final candle
Summoned nightfall
to dance at her funeral party.

When Seasons Conspire
On a dead of winter day
our footsteps in the snow
melt too quickly

In drops of steady rain
we picnic beside the lake
and watch fireworks
fizzle out with summer
Riding the crest of fall
but stalked by spring
and so, in the throes
of such invisible connections
we're preserved
And sitting on a shelf
awaiting our turn
to be pried open
and spread like jam
for someone to consume...
