gravel and tar
grimy and gritty
asphalt yard
put in by my husband
a non-mower
who would like the entire yard to be asphalt

As scents waft in

Wet asphalt
Rain pours down
Cars muddle by
I safe in my perch
Safe in my birch
Still unbent by time

on big feet is
looking for something to eat
on the asphalt
just outside the window
the little bird is big
as a dinosaur
among the ants

Let me leave the concrete behind me
and go where the asphalt no longer shows.
Where the mist-covered trees surround me
and nature gently caresses my soul…

Just over the hill
Beyond the slick black asphalt
misty rain blankets
Cascading through soft sunrays
Shimmering like fire and ice

cold weather aids their enthusiasm
round and round the tree they run
horses glad to be walking on cool asphalt
loving the oranges and browns of autumn

Grass sopping wet
Roads covered in rain
Asphalt slippery
Yet again
Dismally upsetting
All Earth looks wrong
Yielding to what nature wants
She sings this dreary song

The cup
During communion-

Shall be my
Chalice
I guess
Even asphalt
Can be a
Heavenly view.

This morning feels like ignition to the restless soul.
I’ve lived so long grounded, sole to earth and tires to black asphalt.
Oh meshing gears and anklebone. The road, my life, my load.

What kind of dance you do

If you have a dream
A desire and perseverance
You will germinate
Even through the asphalt.

" A time grown out of pity like rain on the asphalt. Pain is a pleasure to the unassuming masses. It was not the vow that was broken, but the innocence that stumbled out of reach of lovers torn at the seams "

Condom on the asphalt!
Never seen or heard,
Numb to the world,
Genes resvior,
Always containing an outburst!
A terminated vector,
Malthusian prophylactic,
Condom discarded
on THE ASPHALT!

Tangled skeins of memories unravel
Implacable reverie in melted rainbows
Encroached upon asphalt canvas, absorbing
New moon's amnesia; her silver shadows confiscate

Glaring oracles, suspended high above the asphalt,
Imperiously commanding reckless drivers to a sharp halt.
Defenestrate the folly of haste, oblivious to the signals,
Prioritize life over velocity and frivolous giggles.
