Too Much Time

 

Humboldt Street apartment, Reno, Nevada – Tuesday, 28 August 2012

Her lonely heart sees

Flowers just outside the door.

Remembering him.

Constantly apart

Savoring only moments

Together in love.

Dissonance

Like shadow puppet

Dragons, her life jerks

Disconnectedly.

Being Human

Rose of Sharon in the Old Southwest, Reno, Nevada – Saturday, 21 July 2012

Might be easier

If she were a dragonfly

Or a lone flower.

Storms

Thunder clouds over east Reno – Monday, 23 July 2012

It’s always raining

Every time she looks skyward,

Sometimes with thunder.

God’s Timing

Clocks tick by themselves

And we breathe to their rhythm:

Life knows when to move.

Pedestrian Warfare

Stitches hide a hole

In his head. He is punished

Now for jaywalking.

Phoenix Storm

Suddenly desert

Sky sprinkles down cool relief:

Rain on hard, parched land.

Legacy and Potential

We share divine spark.

I am, says God, and so we

Are unlimited.

Responsibility

We don’t recognize

The roles we play on life’s stage.

Love turns strange corners.
