Poem In a Box

all directions outward
darkness at night
two meanings at once
yet nothingness
family miles away
yet accompanied by thoughts
I sit at my laptop
and begin
to shape ideas
into a usable form
for someone out there
snow on the roof
and more to come
yet a dream
as a silent world
turns toward spring

I enjoyed this, Mike. And I like the rectangular box effect it has for the pattern.

Writer's box? I often suffer from it. ~~
