Midday Poems - Poems about Midday

Out of the mist of silence, strangers emerge, slowly fading into the midday light their steps rustle petals, and the flower-filled street stirs like an old dream. I let my thoughts drift, white, like a fluff of feather among tender shadows, I hear how the voices of passersby become the scent of apricots – then oblivion erases them. A...

As the blazing king from far eastern horizons Glows and smiles on wee infant toils beneath, He's by man's ever-sprawling greeting praised, Basking in vast kudos by eyes and bared teeth. The new sovereign savors every regal sign As he arcs past the virgin noon's latent line, Unwilling to pause despite cloud-born snags, Undeterred by jealous...

A MIDDAY NIGHTMARE Gates opened at our home, drove in, before we could touch the remote, Guns at our heads, masked men shouting, hammer’s back, itchy fingers, We will kill you, give us jewelry, money, all you’ve got, or these triggers Will go off, nightmare in our garden, they left, we lived, so this I wrote!
