Small Talk

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.

There's a heaviness
that comes over 
leaking in from somewhere,
a certain mood  
that paralyzes the throat.
It causes you to withdraw 
and pull back 
from where you can look out
and not feel what happens,
as if the nerves connecting
you to life are like those
to a tooth numbed
by novacaine.

When it wears off you find
yourself looking for a way

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 Talk

I woke up to the sound of the keyboard clicking
I went ahead and arose and I'm not nitpicking

It wasn't long after that a friend of mine called
I'm glad we have things such as phones installed

We talked awhile concerning my poetry and reactions
I was worried hence to the writing of my factions

I'm sure that soon there's

SMALL TALK

“How are you, well and you?
Oh my! What do you say?”
(Oh look, the time, If you don’t mind, 
I’ll now be on my way.)

“Oh everyone’s fine, Yours? Yes, so is mine, 
give all my love, hugs too.
I’m saved still the same... oh how have you changed,”
(So now our words will be few.)

“All of your

a tender smile
brings rapport,
a seesaw thrill
releases
        a tense tang,
a humorous
             aside
banishes dread,
reminences
     flood memory
         with delight

Premium MemberTalk In Small Doses, Small Talk, Safe

Family get togethers are so much fun
    provided you stick to the rules.
Greet everyone with a smile.
Get them talking about themselves.
Don't compare nor gloat.
Set the timer to 'it will be over soon'.
Keep topics neutral; arguments deflated.
Keep unmentionables hidden away.
Don't say the obvious, keep anger at bay.
Small talk, short talk - in small

Small Talk

I will prove it to you that I’m stronger than you realize
You are my one and only that I prize in my elegant eyes
Feeling like I’ve been living under a rock 
Sorry, hon, but I’m sick of the small talk
What about you keep me warm under your blankets?
Shelter me from the storm – the storm

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.

Small Talk

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.

Then bounce around
   On an Trampoline
