A Closed Door

A door unopened
the knock
makes almost
no sound
so subliminal
is
the flimsy veil
of steel
that guards the answer.


Graceful Descent

Palm holds “Old Man's” face,
eyes are closed resigned to fate.
His FIRST fall is LAST!

blinds closed
removed the plug
from the telephone.

No one home.

Hers, Mine, ours -

The Bar Is Closed

Dew-fresh Corona
Handkerchief in my pocket
Remember it so well

Spring mood
Face mask in my pocket
The bar is closed

I Closed My Door Unto the World

Proud Flags of a Fool unfurled-
Fell upon Life's jagged rocks
I closed my Door unto the World,
But, alas! It has no locks!

The First Easter

He closed his eyes
And died in pain;
But like the sun,
He rose again.

Climbing the gate fast
The big sign posted says 'Closed';
Beautiful water
summoning my rebellion,
with one leap I'm in the pool

Conquering the Sky

Pronounce me lightened,
ethereal wind in wings~
Blow my feathers thus
with slippery zippers closed
to lift me above the sky

Cosset Lilies

Fragile to the touch,
Bathing in rays open wide,
Closed at star lit eyes.

Voters labeled it surreal
the man had little appeal.
But Trump pressed on
sure they were wrong
and closed still another deal.

Linger

Waiting for him feels like standing in a long queue.
In the end, when it’s finally my turn, 
his counter is closed for the day.

Last Words

autumnsun the soft light close
bloom-in-falling yellow choice
damp the day each circle closed
fade the sky as eyes smile tight

Bird Vision

Bird's don't see bars, cages, the stringed net, the closed window. Birds see the only the sky. Be that blind.
