Nighttime falls early

Summer sun sets in the west

Autumn soon returns

amsterdam-558030_960_720A 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

Tags

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
