Moon obscured on high, /
passing through the August sky /
clouds veil, then goodbye. /

August
Ah, crap, August comes /
And I feel so incredibly dumb. /
I had plans to do so much, /
Now they lay piled, an incomplete bunch. /
I planned to travel, to go far, /
But did not make it beyond my car /
And to the chores that needed doing /
That had been brewing and chewing /
Up all my time /
Until the world sublime /
Has moved to August as it now stands /
School and promises hand in hand. /
Maybe next year I’ll visit a museum /
And to libraries — well, I can still go see them. /
Maybe check out a book and make plans /
To go, next May, to some far off lands.

Where
Where once bright flowers /
pulsated with energy, /
now rattle empty

Wings
Wings across the sky: /
dark, expansive nephogram. /
Eagle, hawk, or dove?

Breathe
Breathe in the moment. /
Breathe out the mind’s chatter. /
Breathe, to say the least.

Blue
Evening shades of blue. /
I look up and think of you. /
Nimbus cloud in view.

Rule of 95
Evening east and heat. /
Rule of 95 invoked. /
I scream for ice cream.

Oh, Santa
Oh, Santa, your wife /
is so distraught. You left your /
August balls behind.

Sun
Ordinary star, /
our sun a steady beacon /
in the August sky.

Know
A field of flowers: /
bright, showy, and all dressed the same. /
Does each know its own?
