 May 2015 rain
George Krokos
The truth is sometimes said to be stranger than fiction
which is why it requires at times a lot more conviction.

From "Simple Observations" ongoing writings since the early '90's.

Is it ok for a
Believer
to say she's in love
with the night?

I LOVE it.
Its aura
It's mystery
Its creatures

I sniff the air
Not as a scared timid animal
Nor as a beast looking for prey
But perhaps as a coatimunde*
Perhaps full of mischief
But definitely not afraid

Breathing in the darkness
and the love of it

Breathing in LIFE


*a desert animal that comes out
at night. It looks like a cross between
a monkey and a raccoon
and it's pure mischief!

Fireflies

I've counted every firefly
Waiting for you
One
You have stars in your eyes
Two
And stardust in your lungs
Three
Your voice will drip with honey
Four
My counting's just begun
Sixteen
Every day will be and adventure
Seventeen
I'll travel the world with you
Eighteen
We won't have to leave the bed
Nineteen
My world will be you
Forty-three
We'll compare scars
Forty-four
And swap the best stories
Forty-five
We won't care about accomplishments
Forty-six
We're each other's greatest glories
One hundred and eight
I'm getting lonely dear
One hundred and nine
I counted this firefly twice
One hundred and ten
The waiting will be worth it
One hundred and eleven
You'll be my only vice
One thousand and twenty-one
I don't think you're coming
One thousand and twenty-two
I lost count a long time ago,
I hope you're counting too.
