Oh Crap! It's Me!

Black kites circle high
Tightening Slowly descending
Dark wings block the light
My twisted way at laughing at supposed death! Maybe a little self-deprecating

Boyhood Recalled
ymmiJ Mar 2019
That blue dream lifted from my hand
light as a feather but hard as rain
Leaving me alone as I jumped in chase
Missing again my baby blue dreams
ymmiJ Apr 2019
water has gone slack
silent air, calm clouds, just hanging
somewhere dolphins feed
it's a nature kind of day, cold rainy Alaska has me dreaming of my Pawley's Island SC youth

Write! Right! Write!
ymmiJ Apr 2019
We are the sowers of seeds
These little buds we choose to share
Need careful thought, love, and care
Not meant to be just strewn about to dry
Someone’s life lessons splayed out to just die
So whoever plants these in hopes of growth
have already done so, go forth and sow

Crying At The Moonlight
ymmiJ Apr 2019

fireplace writing, reflecting
old flames in my heart, rekindling
