Such power in
Nature
The senses quicken
The feeling of
Aliveness
As winged bird
Saunters
Overhead
And ducks gracefully
Peacefully
Glide on the rippling water
Crisp crunchy leaves
Leaving a smoky
Scent behind
Fresh scented pine
Amidst the trees
The caw  caw of
A crow
Enjoying morning
Flight
Such a miracle to
Witness
Between a mask covered
Face
Mornin walks. Such a new and different
Miracle to be held each day.

Yesterdays have come
And gone
Yesterday I read some
Of your stories
And poems
You wrote even
If you didn't
Feel well
Oh to have
Talked to you
What you wrote
What you felt
I could only
Reply with
Tear filled eyes
As you looked
Down from Heaven
Was that God I heard
Or was it thunder
Yesterday I reread some of my brother's
Poetry. Ohh how I miss him

The crescent today
Smiles feeble in the dark sky
Yet radiates from within
The light it holds dear


🌙
18th January, the crescent moon

Garbage bags
Tater tots
Black beans
Milk

This is a grocery list
not a poem.
But my brain is out of poems,
and the store is out of milk,
so maybe it is both.
Its just a grocery list.
The setting Sun,
An empty beach,
Sand on my ****
Waves kissing and tingling my feet,
Gulping wild salty air.,
Nothing but happiness.
