The last sound I heard
…Was…
A mockingbird cry
…Just…
As I fell down to die
…The…
Mimic was despairing
…To…
My already broken heart
…Above…
I saw the mockingbird flapping
…Its…
Broken wing. If he can still
…Sing…
I can persevere. Get up
…Not…
Give up, and learn how to
…Fly…
If all else fails, at least I can give
…It…
A hell of a try

Outside the window in the early morning
Frost…
I observed a single bird that appeared to be
Lost…
It tweeted and glanced from side to side
As…
If deciding which direction to fly
Standing…
On the frozen twigs
It…
Pecked around some fallen leaves
Then….
Took flight into the frozen
Breeze…

Quenching thirst
Purifying and cleansing
Skin…
Opening pores
Vigorous…
Exercise taking a
Swim…
House plants
Gulping…
Growing…
And living
I do not
Live…
Alone I could
Not…
Live without
Water…
There would not
Be…
A living
Creature…

The hose is spraying at full blast
The loud squashing drowning the screams
Of someone’s loved ones begging for help
With perpetrators hearts colder than
The chilly water, they stand banned
Together, with the deadly hose in hand
Voices become weak as bodies sink
Havoc in the street is eradicated

Serenity
A peaceful voyage of the mind
Floating on waves of ease
A raft of calmness
Feeling a slight autumn breeze
The movement and sound
Of the rustling leaves
Tension and worries
Have all been ceased

A blood-curdling scream, sliced the silence
Shadows have no past, or future
They exist for moments in time
While I was sleeping, my shadow
Wasn’t, It was alive
And breathing on me
Holding a knife with a
Bloody serrated blade

Why is it that the
Pure in heart are lost
So young
To violence
From a gun
Or
A silent killer
In the night?

Taking a road trip down interstate 9
The street was lined with murmuring pines
You wouldn’t miss them, as you whisked by
They spoke softly of the things they have seen
A grape orchard hid behind the line
I could smell the aroma blowing off the vines
A spectacular view, a backdrop of blues
The hues of the sun, having so much fun
The ins and outs and in-between
The colors of nature
A beauty to be seen

Autumn
It’s coming, cloaked in colors of the earth
To live awhile, then fertilize its place of birth
With wind blowing leaves with its assertiveness
They twirl in the air, and rest on the ground
You rake them up, and make a pile
Add apples, and bees
And you know it is Fall

The ticking of the clock
Punctures the silence
The night is breathing softly
The plants are gasping for air
Whispering in the atmosphere
Bend your ear, so you can hear
Soft sounds of the night
They will be gone, once there is
Light
