Disturbed Shadows
DISTURBED SHADOWS
Blinds closed. Dank darkness. A scintilla of frosted sunshine on a cloudy day. Dim lamplight. A doleful chirp. Quiescent but not in a peaceful way. Disturbed shadows of monotone.
the birds and bees hide
in dog days darkness -
rainfall
The fan wobbles and whorls. A placid flag on summer’s porch. Wet bark with leaves prepares to spawn fall colors. But changes have downtime ~ blue-gray shifts.
the shifting seasons
of still oak leaves -
gray-blue beard of clouds
