Purging
unwanted things
from my home after a

Tension

It rests beneath the surface,
tension threatening to rise

At a moment's notice,
both sides failing to reach

An agreement, yet years
of memories linger,

Mixed with the strong
feeling of pain.

05/10/2017

Storms

I feel thankful for time,
that my journey is filled

With valuable lessons
carried over the years;

My divide in the road,
solitary travel a brief

Detour, reunited
after the tension clears.

I feel blessed that time brought
me the gift of patience,

Waiting for storms to pass,
no matter how lengthy.

before getting
ready for the work day,
gathering my energy for

Evening

As the sun sinks below
the horizon,

The signs of life around
the neighborhood

Begins to quell, slowly
settling into slumber,

Readying itself for
another day of life.

Weekends

Weekends
filled with writing
and loved ones make for great,
memorable occasions, longing
for more.

One Track

The train to the city
slowed to a crawl, then stopped.

A packed car forced to wait
until the lone track used

For the weekend is clear.
Its passengers journey

To various journeys,
their thoughts drifting to prompt

Arrivals rather than
fighting with each other.

They all share one track with
discussions, laughter, life.

05/07/2017

Carefree

Loving
a carefree day
with my caring partner,
traveling on the interstate
for fun.

Brace

Bracing
myself for a
phone call that will decide
my immediate future, clock
ticking.

Movie Night

Watching
a fun movie
with the fiance while
seeing old friends, a nice end to
Thursday.

Frozen

Writing
is my life blood,
yet stressors recently
block the mental flow of free thought,
frozen.

DIfferent Times

Living
in different times,
social media the
new connection for co-workers
to share.

Spring Evening

Evening
arrives as I
complete the busy tasks
of my day job, now watching my
program.
