Poem Category: Living Elderly

living elderly–

the bird-seed flutters

I stand alone in

living elderly–

oozing on the peach tree

hailstone bruises

living elderly–

in one spring nap

the Gum trees bud

living elderly–

magpies on the fences

to and fro

living elderly–

how fragile

grandkids hug

living elderly–

the fragrant moments

of winter rains

living elderly–

a fledgling on the lawn

its pink mouth to feed

living elderly–

which of those stars

seems more alone

living elderly–

only the moonlight reads

my Tarot cards

living elderly–

on reflections

moonshine bends of the river
