The Ending

My love, the time has come to turn a leaf, anew for our union, succumbs to end. So let's have our last supper, this evening drink down the wine of destined times, linger on luscious lips, until next time, My love. 12 July 2022 Radical Rictameter Contest Sponsored by Caren Krutsinger Checked via Poetry Soup Syllable Counter


One Cell

Run…
As fast as you can
Red shades of dismal
Flowing fear
Melt to the glass of sand

Hide…
In the hollow hidden dry
Drink down the spell 
Of earth and hell
Indifferent to the sky

Lie…
Forever un-seamed
Face down amidst 
The death of sound
Black holes of melody

Sleep…
To the blood of setting sun
From spiral dreams
Look down at what
One cell has now become

Hope For the Future

I sit and I drink
I drink as I think
I think I should pour
My drink down the sink

I sit and I ponder
The thoughts that I think
I wonder what's lost
Down the drain in the sink

I sit on the porch
And stare at the sky
The stars and the moon
Twinkle deep in my eye

Lord how I love
The blanket of night
Some fear it most
But I see the light

Then when morning comes
And I rub my eyes
I see a blue beauty
With sun in the skies

Impromptu

the lettuce
is wilting
let us pray
for salad days

but
so said by Shaw
about gardens
and god

he's in the ground
but digging a bed
isn't the same
as a grave

so she was sown
from seed to sprout
now an heirloom
with an older tune

but still blue bells
toll in a breeze
they toll not for you
not due at least

another season to greet
spring up with the sun
drink down the rain
summer's slumbers

never one to complain
never one to distain
caffeine laughing
