Charted lanes of custom,
complacency alights
familiarity trumping all
—mindless in the night

Lanes are still;
and church music drifts.
Brilliant noon.
Fragrant rose,
Cat and purple butterfly,
Hearts are filled with love.

down leaf-strewn lanes
hedgerows of inspirations
a poet’s dreaming reveals
a poetry records it well
a day preempted

Forgiving
Forgetting all thoughts paining
Forgiving
Closing the lanes revenge traveling
Forgiving
Deleting all errors from memory

The fog hangs low at dusk
orange light creeps it's way along the fields
smoke plumes drift up into the shrouded sky
and we walk along the lanes.

Along country lanes
Paved with leaves of red and gold
Mellow shadows fall

Luminance
Life's lessons lurk in
Labyrinthic lanes of mind;
Light the lamp within

A glinting light fabricated under wilting hallows;
Yet darkness reigns as truth through fallow lanes runs hoarse and shallow;
So light as heaven's feather be the turns of ray and shadow.

6 earthmovers terracing a hill,
no more horses in a swale of green.
4 lanes westbound, 4 lanes east.
Caterpillars are eating the fields>
We take the long easy curves
black-shod.

It's nature's will in Autumn trees—
To slip out of offbeat colors.
There lay crushed prose he saw through her.
My unattached ground still does bleed
From raked walks on lanes— those who leave.

Open Swim at Six
See many arms, like shark fins, in pool lanes.
In laps, dusting off dark,
The shiver starts on their mark.
Young stars heading for the lark.

It came after midnight as bells rang,
most people were asleep as buildings swayed,
light poles fell down empty lanes,
cars and buses crashed into trains,
smoke rose from gas lines as they exploded.

Disaster seems to follow, wherever I go.
I journey quickly through busy city streets, roads and lanes.
People shout and scream, they run at my arrival.
I only want to be loved, alas i'm a hurricane.

Which way does the spell go?
Where does her fury go?
Wry face and fuming heart
Wilted meadow we see
Witching hour saddles her
Waiting to cast the spell
Walking on mystic lanes

Caught at
a crossroad
duality
reigns
Closing
you off
or opening
lanes
That choice
staring back
in the distance
provides
A new
destination
or a place
— you can hide

Chasing the Goodlife
Traveling far in packed trains
Wonder why I can’t see sky
Narrow lanes, pigsty
Close my eyes to begging kids
Needy, feeling within me.

A while
Surprise
Few miles
Determined
To be
Time gone.
Passing through
Fast lanes
Unclaimed.
Years abroad
Months are gone
Weeks roll by
Days fly.
Hours, minutes, and seconds
Time has expeditiously gone by.

Gentle exercise
is recommended
for older persons.
Enjoyable, fun,
not too physical.
Stroll along lanes,
under bridges
around a lake
or through the woods
It’s pleasant
relaxing
and easy.
Why not
take a
walk

Creamy hot chocolate
bathes windowpanes
Two Clydesdales trot smartly
down cobblestone lanes
Through the trees, moon rises
pools of light, reflection's prayer
Rest now, reminders
~ of an era unscared

I let my heart to fly like a kite
Holding the string tight
At her
All lanes kept locked down
To do no touch
To do no hug
Disabled by default all
Enemy of love
To harm my heart?
Jealousy of my love
This Covid 19 teen?

Blank verse
Dry stone walls
And rambling lanes
Fell ponies with six foot manes
Farmers at the market with sheep to sell
Snow in the winter blocking shap fell
Wellies in the kitchen
Straw in the hall
Not forgetting the barometer on the wall.

Narrow cobblestone lanes
The clop-clop of horse-drawn buggies
The crack of the whip...
Pots of Steam on blackened stoves
Whooping cough, scarlet fever
Stale bread, castor oil...

Down dusty lanes we quietly stroll
Fallen' leaves , red and brown decorate the ground
memories covered with smoke and haze
fill simpler days of choices made
coming close to playful pursuit
death by design leads to life in the twilight

high rise
get high rays
and wetter
on wet days
closer
to aeroplanes
in lanes like cars
soldiers of concrete
steel feet in wars
in pillars
like Lot’s wife
or muggers
with sharp knife
hanging in blocks
or flocks
stabbing the sky
