All day, upon the bench she sat
a winter face, neath summer hat;
beneath, the source of her complaint
a scribbled sign; beware - wet paint....

Plastic Flowers
Plastic flowers
upon the grave
once bright 
now faded....


How do you live?
In the small increments
of the present?
Looking ahead ~
Ignoring today?
Retrospective ~
and with regrets
Wishing that 
the flowers
left behind were real.

Premium Member Retrospective Phases
needful..
     seeking quiet:
to wind
       down,
pass through
            fatigue-
to forget 
            phobias
               and fear..
await...
    the trusted
          elements 
               of life-
for today
           will surely 
pass...

Premium Member Winter '47 a Retrospective
a re-post inspired by Janice's contest

WINTER '47

Jumpers, darned with wool
Trousers, patched for school;
Shoes scuffed,left unlaced
Teeth framed in metal brace;
Dripping noses and chilblains,
Scarfs and finger mitts
Ears muffled against the chill
Free milk solid on the sill....
