Early morning fog
gives way briefly to flurries
before the sun emerges.

Fog to sun to rain
followed by the dark of night,
stars glittering in the sky.

It can be hard to
admit your mistakes, accept
defeat and move on from there.
~
It’s not difficult!
All you need do is suspend
grandiosity and ego.
Gutters and downspouts
and clutter and broken tools,
and still I found time to write.

If we make time for
what we love, we’ll do all else
with a lighter touch.
Over and over
we have to be reminded
when it’s dark turn on the light.
~
Even with lights on,
darkness, sometimes, will not fade.
Then we sing to lift spirits.
When shadowy beasts
feel emboldened to emerge
in broad daylight, they’re rabid.
~
Once we can see them
in all their madness, we can
act whether they’re ours or theirs.
What can each of us
do to form and sustain a
more perfect union?
~

to ourselves and each other
and cherish our differences!

before off he went again –
dog park dynamo.

A fleeting recharge
is sometimes all someone needs
to keep running ’til nightfall
At long last, respite
from that omnipresent din
chirping misinformation!

By din do you mean
the soon to be absent one,
Donald Omnistupid Trump?
They pledged allegiance,
not to their country, but to
a power-loving mad man.
~
One who wipes himself
with the constitution he
swore to protect and defend.
