stricken, he lay
frozen, gripped by agony
yet marveling at the cold
inspiring the perspiring
of a one-sided hold
grasping the reality
of simply growing old.

Swallows thrill
Swans in twilight reeds☽
Harvest on the wing

Nature's skyward palette

Gnats leap and pirrouet

#Autumnal breeze at dawn
Spring just sprung yet summer's gone
A mourning dove sings the #song
The rain's remains won't linger long.

I wipe the water from my eyes
to see so clear the coming skies
clouded once by fears and lies
there's blue up there
to my surprise.

Feel a bit wonky
After midnight snack... Am I
The #gremlin in here?

I want to move on
But a longing sneaks in
Like a snake
Shedding its skin
Leaving old scars behind
Being free from old sin
The shell that was
Holds the imprints
Of how I’ve grown
Of what I’d been
I can’t just leave it
So I’m stuck again

“Rustic or just #rusty,” #remarked the #large man. He was eyeing the cabin’s door knob. The ranger shrugged & said they‘re all like that. He unlocks the door, telling the man to go in.
“Got another one for you,” the ranger says into his phone. “10-4” is the reply.

Pebble on the beach
Mulberry beside forest path
Sparrows on wing

Ripe plums upon the ground
Tales of my familiar haunts
