Poem Category: Miscellaneous

Neighbour’s mantelpiece
amazed by the youth
in their photographs.

The doors open
movie goers dash
out to the night.

Rocket by rocket
midnight burns
in the new year.

Retired dancer
opening
her red curtains.

Russet street
I remove the chimes-damper
from the grandfather clock.

Outdoor concert
a wind swaying
the wildflowers.

Monday fog
the girl at the bus stop
with a daisy in her hair.

Heaven high
a wedge of geese turns out
of the dawn.

Old man’s books
his pages turned
to paper lice.

A brew of coffee
letting me sit
alone with winter.
