Gradient of Gray
This is a fragile moment.
Everything is changing colors.
The pavement on my street is
blackened
The remnants of rain giving an oily sheen.
Walls darken -
My ~ Dream ~ Library
My personal library would be tucked away on the side of the house. It would take some effort to get there with many twists and turns. Up and down staircases past hallways and hidden doors and all of a sudden, you’d be there. -
My mother
(for Mom)
My mother works into the night
and rises with the sun.
Her keyboard is a ghost
that haunts the house

Moonlit Avenue
On the moonlit avenue
half shadows and silhouettes
glide down shining pavement.
On the moonlit avenue
we glow like angels
our eyes glimmer like stars.
On the moonlit avenue -
These Nights
Still air. Cool breeze.
The constant cacophony of insects
setting the scene for these summer nights.
Nights to reflect on
youth. -
Softly Falling Rain
The rain falling softly calls me.
The rain falling softly draws me
in.
I like when the rain falls softly, quietly.
It suits my searching, silent
soul.

Yesterday I Took a Moment to Just Be
Yesterday I took a moment outside the cafe
And watched people walking by
You would think upon seeing me
Tea in hand
I was at peace
And you are right

April, My Admiral
April, my admiral,
lighten my wings with your shrill whistle,

the american dream
i toured six different colleges over the past week

Lavender and Gardenias
Her room smelled of lavender and gardenias
As we lay under silky rays of sun
And danced around the truth in long, snaking sentences,
Words falling over one another until they
Became nothing, only syllables
