Crying At The Moonlight
ymmiJ Apr 2019
wolves shed tears, howling
moonlight cries, echoing
fireplace writing, reflecting
old flames in my heart, rekindling
memories, drifting
old feelings deep, thawing

Feeling To Stop Caring

As the hummingbird stops it’s own heart
Then I started beating again
Google it! They do! Then start it when the danger is gone

Momentarily, Bliss

Fore
ymmiJ Mar 2019
The clubs are my brushes the courses are my empty spaces
Coloring with wide draws and drooping fades
I sweep in a birdie as my friend counts his paces
I yearn for the roars and the smiles on their faces

When I was young and a day was thirty six not twenty four
Now I am done in nine I wish I could play more
But tomorrow I will paint on a new canvas with a new score
Some say it a nice walk spoiled, I couldn't ask for anything more
For my earliest love
