Poem Category: The distance

the distance
to a horizon
from a horizon

grandma’s winter
the distance
her hands hold pain

in grandma’s diary
the distance
they drove-on to elope

Italian sunshine
the distance
in Pompeii’s streets

in Creation
the distance
to perfect an eagle

her gate opens
the distance
to grandma’s strawberries

an eagle dives
the distance
to perfect kills and eat

bird’s eggs
the distance
a snake will climb

an old flame
the distance
she talks about us

afternoon winds
the distance
our sunflowers bend
