Luna

Weightless in the sky
The rim of a silver cup
Spilling out the night

Shadow

The crook of my arm
Cradling ebony silk
Purring in my ear

Millstone

Old memories found
In the back of the closet
Hiding in the gloom

Contentment

In our bed, half asleep
The years of comfort found in
The space between us

Snow

Dancing on the road
Windblown veils of white ribbon
As the snowfall starts

Alone

In the lone white oak
A solitary squirrel
Calls out for its mate

Missing

In a copse of trees
Entwined in vines, a slowly
Rusting tricycle

Rebirth

A desert reborn
As rain coalesces and
Falls to the parched earth

Beach

Sunset on the dunes
Sibilant whispers whirl from
The wind in the reeds

Passing

I caught your eye then
I glanced down at my cell phone
And you kept walking
