Poem Category: Living Elderly

living elderly–

the remains of a candle

yesterday‘s light

living elderly–

insomnia

in wall to wall sounds

living elderly–

afternoons begin the leave

to shadows

living elderly–

a watched flower

unfolds to the rain

living elderly–

an afternoon heat

sniffed with the rain

living elderly–

a garden Buddha

the moonlight seeks

living elderly–

the moon face cracked

in a puddle of ice

living elderly–

all our years spent

as mostly water

living elderly–

to the patch of sun

a worn chair

living elderly–

first light opens

the dark dream rubbing my eyes
