Box carred in
Freight train before me. /
White car blocking my behind. /
Road to nowhere now.

Light
Before the windows /
Shines the ceiling lamp, hanging /
Empty and yet full.

Sentinels
On the quiet stairs, /
holding hope for next Christmas, /
sentinels wait….

Lichen
Pathways, walkways, walls — /
Lichen covered here and there. /
Brick, stone, wood, and dirt — /
Decay is Time’s only care. /
Taking down the now — /
Leaving pieces that we share. /
Pathways, walkways, walls — /
Leading onward, lichen dare.

Waves
Waves in the water, /
waves in the sky, waves hello, /
and waves goodbye.

Unbidden
Unbidden, Spring blooms, /
poking through neglect and pain, /
yellow and graceful.

Tracks
All travel alone /
Each in a box car of flesh /
Whistling goodbye.

Carried
Shadow on the fence. /
Memories never still, /
Carried off by the sun.

Morning
Morning light divides. /
Shadows wander like false ghosts: /
here, dark, and then gone.
