Rainy day
Wet dog on pavement
Looking in
Seeing me
Sit by the cosy fireside
Ignoring its plight.

I can still
hear her boots
hit pavement
As she walks
Down the street
By herself
The moonlight
highlighting
her movements

Shadows shimmer on Spring day stroll.
Tree branches fall on sun-bathed pavement.

Straddling iron beast
Rumbling pipes, vibrating seat
pavement disappears
wind whisking troubles away
Riding, soaking up some rays

Today I dropped words
between cracks in the pavement:
half-written screenplays.
My muse, a cappuccino,
conjures romance while I sip.

the pavement under streetlights

glides through still skies
towards the glowing amber sunset
till it's wheels meet pavement
and it's mission is met

filled with angels
where promises of gold
outweigh chances to grow old
and there are stars
in the hills and pavement

Kick out your windows
and let the glass shatter against the pavement below
the better to hear the crickets
the better to breathe in the night

Run
That's all I can do
Pounding the pavement
Shoe after shoe
Running for a reason that is not clear
Season after season
Year after year

Heat from the pavement
Rises in shimmering waves
Torrid summer day
Looking for relief
Fire hydrants gush cooling spray
City children play

Out of my fountain pen
sprays droplets of words
onto a pavement of paper;
Out of my fountain pen
runs a river of ink,
I write all that I think.

pretty the pavement —
beneficent tree
hustle and bustle idles —

A brine-eyed dog struts through my yard
Snuffling the pavement cracks
Its partner circles under guard
Behind its owners' absent backs

once one drop falls
it is gone
when another drop falls
it is gone
too
like so many lights
they are snuffed out
one
by
one
as they hit the pavement.

Lovers huddle close.
Rain smacks the dusty pavement.
Commuters bustle,
Seeking refuge in doorways.
Diesel fumes, cigarette smoke,
Intoxicate the bus queue.

love like currency that changes hands,
that falls into cracks between the pavement,
protected by some, squandered by others,
unspent, overdrawn, overwhelmed

it's freezing/ the eyelids're drawing near pavement/
leaving the orange blurs on the street/

could be ever so tender and sweet/

He pounded the pavement feeling crummy
his job outlook not very sunny
then he saw a sign
help wanted come inside
becoming a crash test mummy dummy.

I splat the slim cigarette's ashes onto the pavement,
Little to no care of my own psychological impairment,
While living through life with no means of any repayment.

even after
those wheels
caught that

sending you
sprawled into

Gray skies, gray puddle-splash
Gray skipping rope on the gray pavement
Gray cars, gray socks
Gray jeans, gray T-shirt
Gray soul, gray hairs
Gray matter
Gray middle name.
