Night, embrace me, too.

Face
Sun shines through one face. /
In each of us, a thousand. /
Select one and shine.

Sitting
Snow sits in your chair, /
surveys your sleeping garden, /
Sad it will miss spring.

Dressing
Fog enfolds the world, /
dressing the night’s mysteries /
with forgotten dreams.

Brains
If I had my brains /
I’d share some of them with you. /
I’ll keep an eye out.

And, one hopes, a good story or two, as well.

Summer
Summer heat’s close beat. /
Feel temperature’s music. /
Humidity’s strum.

Breeze
Life for all its faults /
Hangs like a Spring water drop — /
Waits for a freeing breeze.

Shadows and colors
Sunlight sits on cap /
Lying in quiet repose /
Waiting to turn heads.

COVET-19 Blues
The feeling that you get,
When someone you know is let
In line in front of you.
You are not a high risk dame
Or a gunsel of the same,
But it is a crime and shame, true.
You want to get the stick,
Feel the vaccine do its trick
And tell the virus, “Screw you.”
You’ve waited patiently,
A patient you don’t want to be —
It is worse than the flu.
Then this feeling you get — mean,
Some call it COVET-19,
Because a friend beat you through.
Hey, we’re of the same young age.
We ain’t old enough to be a sage—
So screw you, too.
You say it when no one’s there.
It’s a feeling that you dare not share,
This COVET-19 Blues.
