Quiet sober love
rises with the morning Sun;
Unspoken desire
lingers from the night before;
Small talk has found the silence.
Quick with the small talk;
Surrounded by attention,
still you stand alone;
Your broken heart in your eyes;
Do you see me? I see you.
Predictable
Weather or not
Small talk
When the oceans stop
All bets will be off

Hurting Small Talk
Sometimes gossip sprouts
Sowing deceptive stories.
Seeming true, but not—

Poetic form: Senryu
Sixteen unique individuals
sit on sixteen washing machines.
As they make small-talk
they stare at sixteen dryers, all in a row
chugging and churning to the same hum.
Frost and Thoreau were going for a walk.
Frost said I can make a poem from a sock.
Thoreau laughed hard
At this braggish bard
Published a poem from this crazy small talk.
A US born painter was Albert York
preferred action to small talk
American vanitas was his style*
small,minimal lacking guile

F ar from free are we.
R emoved from society.
E ntirely caught up.
E mailing and texting.
T urn off your phone.
E xchange small talk.
X and hug each other.
T ouch reality.
a tender smile
brings rapport,
a seesaw thrill
releases
a tense tang,
a humorous
aside
banishes dread,
reminences
flood memory
with delight
I nod my head and smile again
The burning creases brand my skin
A scar I will forever wear
There's nothing left to talk about
Pretend to hear; pretend to care
I fear my words have all run out.
The truth of life
Is hidden in your small talks
Now look at the views
On the photo how peaceful it is
For today's running time
It becomes emotional
To stay among the loved ones and talk.

Listen to poem:
(Another childhood or teen years poem.)
Newsprint small talk
in Mediocrity's lead pot
rustles and gossips while,
splashed spectacularly across
the speckled page of
Society's intellect,
a murder making column one
hides the hushed massacre
of minds.
I have longed for a visitor, to knock upon my door
and indulge me with stories,
from another shore.
Someone with whom,I may wile away the hours,
conversing about life...
not just the rain showers
Form:
Inside I’m an emerald empath
Now I can be myself at home
Teal reveals my polite laugh
Ready to red reveal if not alone
Onyx opinions kept close to chest
Violet dimensions personal preference
Every party is like a pop test
Rendezvous with raspberry reference
Thankful for small talk and concession
Listen to poem:
Small Talk Delayed
David J Walker
The days dawn falling in
Uncertain brokenness
Strangeness
came in waves
of multicolored
Cool sunrays
Nothing would be the same
He said
But nothing ever is
Instead
Of small talk delayed
The gardener went about
his business
Pruning the garden
small talks
on long walks
reminds me of love
enjoying the view
with a lover
puts my mind at ease
small talks
on long walks
taking in
the summer breeze
writing our names
in the sand
praying they won't wash away
like on a driveway with chalk
if there's one thing
i enjoy with you
it's small talk
on a long walk
GYNECOLOGIST
Grappling to make small talk:
“Good morning,” he begins.
“Gee, I like your cute socks”
Good grief don’t speak to me…
Gaining back my pale face
Gynecologist gaff!

True Story!
*Z - Zelensky
*P - Putin
Z - "I've signed mines."
P - "Mines as well."
Z - "Then shall we."
P - "To our dinners."
Z - "Hope it's not Borscht."
P - "Could be, Dim Sum."
Z - "Mayhaps, Sushi"
P - "How was your dinner?"
Z - "The hot water need ..."
P - "... More salt, I agree."
Z - "Oh, you've washed your hands."
P - "Of the whole matter."
oh my, you're splendid
like a fern growing backwards
„you hack writer“
you're a castellanus at 9 PM
after the dinner rich in miracles
hate re-living the mundane moments
over
and over
and over
and over
so sick of the everyday small talk.
still magnetized by the oddities.
this is the right way, not vice versa.
So much to say,
So little time;
Rush through each day,
No time to rhyme.
So much to do,
So many things;
To win and woo,
No time to sing.
So much to gain,
So put things off;
Bear hurts and pains,
Live with odd cough.
So much to live,
No time for grief;
So give and give,
For life is brief.

Singapore
Crashing waves on the rocks
And Smelling salt water air
As I walk towards the docks
Sightseeing boat tours appear
I partake the tour on a whim
Making Small talk with people
forgetting my woes with some gin
Life is feeling more simple
In the distant shores I see
My lover with his new beauty
I think about jumping ship
but I will just have another sip
*************Note: Life Is A Trampoline***********
It is a fool who
Puts' ideas' into His
Own Head
-And-
Then bounce around
On an Trampoline
GF
Morrow: Though life has it's own
Ups' and Downs'
Be prepared......
For that bounce'
Before you hit the ground.....
Years of Silence without cause
Many using all you are
No way to relieve all the bull
Taking it with a grain of salt
Keeping real thoughts
Small talk of ones who can not
Needing to bring others down
Living for the moments of one
Who can
Does and will
Come through all their thrills
The victory short lived
Winner rises again and again
Uncaring the opinions
Watts gnu
Asked Sou
Knot much
Said Dutch
Ewe're late
Four date
Takes walk
Small talk
Tries hug
Slugs mug
Steels kiss
Near miss
Street car
Two bar
Byes bier
Ayes blear
Holds hand
Grate band
Lets dance
Know chance
Yew're drunk
Yew punk
He heaves
She leaves
Head tossed
Git lost
Sou miffed
Left swift
Ewe're tight
Good nite
