Premium Member Starlit Symphony
I still remember 
how you were
there in the dark,
holding my 
bleeding heart.

Premium Member Illness is
a lonely place.
It's nothing to do with that person

Dawning Poetic Dreams
I'm an enlightened 
equinox, strolling in
faded universe, 
dreaming poetry in
susurrus serenades 
of rustling

Before his wife found out

Premium Member Snow, Snake, Snow, Birds, Sickness, Sitting
So many, maybe millions
No, billions. Trillions?
Of stars, a quiet, hot snowfall
of white stars; sandal season squall.
Each birch tree here outdoing 
January's record accumulation.

Weeks of hour...
