Left on the table
Forgotten in the chaos
Over there, by the playground.
~
So lonely it looks,
this hat without a wearer,
sadly left behind.
Left
grief
In The Land Of The Free
Sometimes in the midst
of an overly busy
day, peace thankfully descends.
~
And sometimes that peace
is suddenly shattered by
staccato shooting reports.

Rage against the Indifferent Omnipotent
When we’ve prepared for
hurricanes that don’t hit, why
is there some disappointment?
~
Do we, secretly,
long to shout defiant rage
into some almighty’s face?
Blooming Lilies
When you consider
the lilies of the field, what
might you ask? What might you learn?
~
Why do you bloom here,
this inhospitable place?
Why, in sorrow, beauty blooms.

All We Have
When lives fall apart,
how do we reconcile
what is with what was?
~
Sometimes willingness,
courage, and grace are all we
have to see us through.

Escape Into Timelessness
Where can you run to
Escape this modern world
And it’s electronic leash?
~
To escape, walk, don’t run,
to a quiet place, open
a print book and read.
