Premium Member Genie In a Bottle

Floating in the sea
                         a genie needs to be free
                          Three rubs and I'm fine

Stuck In a Pond

Sharing loneliness
On a boat in a stale pond
We keep throwing rocks
To imitate the great seas
Too cowardly to explore

A Man In a Dream Called Once His Wife

A man in a dream called once his wife
By another women's name.
What can I say? He lost his life
In bed, without pain .

You gave me a box of darkness
Disguised as a heart of love
You locked my peace inside it
Then paraded for all the world

     world alters ...!
     life revives

Two friends together speaking in silence.
Nature's mirror
reflecting

folded neatly there 
in the desk drawer,
unfolding I see
our last journey, planned
but never taken.

Who ate the last dodo bird
thinking it would do just fine
for family Thanksgiving dinner?

fingertips coil
chords fret as trembling waves
triggered afar 
die on these rocks
a sextet of sorrows
his strings arouse

Pennies in a bucket saved
Holding them for the future
Though they make very small change
Still can earn a buck

Premium Member Message In a Bottle

My love for you
is bottled
aging 
to perfection
maybe
turning to vinegar.

Will the bottle break
before you sober up?

Love In a Pandemic

She stood in the moonlight smiling.
My perfect English rose.
Personal protective equipment
from her head down to her toes.

Premium Member Smile In a Different Font

Your social construct?
Smile in a different font;
I asked for nothing;
The message is still the same;
Ridiculous dynamic.

Premium Member Once In a Great While

once 
in a great while
snow falls
straight down -- 
no icy slants
no whirling dance --
past Autumn's
bewildered
leaves

Found In a Closet

Fossils from the mountain top
Signs of life from ages past
The first gift you gave to me
When I thought our love would last
