People are all over. 
Some we see, others we barely
Notice. Some we instantly look
Away from, afraid to acknowledge.
I am talking about the beggars

the one grocery store there was in town

Moonlight shines on the lake,
The gentle ripples make it shimmer
in the eyes like slivers of silver,
Dancing on the unstill water surface.

In the chilly, late Autumn evening,
The cold wind blows across
Welcoming the winter

A haze… 
Languorous oft in summer days 
Where sundrops drip 
From melting skies 
Onto city grind 
And parasols shade the cobbled grays

Trains and trolleys tip toe by 
As a fool in...

She nuzzled her first born,
Until he ungainly stood.
Fresh birthed, dewy damp,

Hooves dance, tattooing the morning mist,
Shaking the night loose,...
