A Quick Glimmer of Light
Captures the Spirit
The Quintessence of a Soul
Illuminating the Now
Enchanting the Past

Crosswalk
02 Tuesday Sep 2014
A hand flashes before me
As I step off the concrete
Into the tarry abyss of asphalt
Laying heavy under my feet
Painted white lines blur
Intertwined with bodies
Avoiding the influx of traffic
Haphazardly pushing by
Warning sounds provoke
Like a morning alarm clock
Playing a deafening melody
Out of sync, out of rhythm
The heartbeat of the city
And suddenly I am lost
Diverted to the left
That doesn’t seem right
Gridlocked
Pushing and pulling against
The flow of indifference

Tender Is
01 Monday Sep 2014
Tender is the morn
That softly caresses
A blade of grass
With early dew
Tender is the wind
That subtle breeze
Awhirl in the air
Sending thoughts
Of you
Tender is the rain
That trickles down
Purging the anguish
Of the past
Tender is the night
That stars enrapture
Twinkling promise
You’ll return to me
At last
