By her too-high
Hopes again
She wasn’t aiming
For the skies
Or the stars
Or the moon
At the top
Of the trees
Or the vertiginous
High notes
Of a tune
Just for a sprinkle
More energy
A whisper less sleep
To help her spirits
Climb up
From the deep

Hidden Plaintive owl cries
Have unnerved him
Awakened something
Hidden deep within
Tugging at something
He’d forgotten somehow
Or something he
Doesn’t yet know

The Well And The Ladder I was having a bad time
In my well of self-doubt
When along came Myka
With love in that smile
And a ladder
To help get me out

Dominoes An afternoon game of dominoes
A hand in hand evening stroll
By the still, mirror-like sea
Gently tending to each other’s needs
Thro’ decades of their shared history
Love still shining brightly
As they approach their nineties

Paper Heart Write your name
On my paper heart
Newspaper boats on a lake
Fake news
My paper heart breaks

Pondering Pondering on
A perfect world
All metaphorical
Blue skies and sunshine
Everyone always
Getting along
Then
Realisation-
We may need
An irritant
A little pain
Something about which
To always complain
After all
You need the grit
To make the pearl

Family Buffet Sisters and mothers
Boyfriends and brothers
The joys of a two-family buffet
All going well
‘til someone chose to tell
They thought my niece was
…. my sister
Me complimented
Niece’s pride really dented

Contenders Cruising the town
Tattered cars
Bass so low
Vibrate
For urban king

ShakeDown *whisper*
I don’t really know
What a shakedown is
Or where I’d go
To get one
Is it something you buy
Or something to try
Do you see it
Reveal it
Or feel it
Drink it or think it
Do you do it
Or have it done
Or is life better
Without one
