a stone
thrown
now alone
in parsley
so sparsely grown
The wind trills carefree tones
yet roots know what’s been sown
Still it waits
unseen
unknown
a thought
a stone
forever alone

Old habits, recapture the corners; ambushing instants, retreating at thought.
Discipline, flickers to indolence; shrugging off failings, in wordy remonstrance.
“Hypocrite”, I self-charge with sanctimony; knowing that too, for an excuse.

Will Chirp for Seeds
Concealed among a tangle of bare branches, heard before seen.
Curious and observant, now out in the open waiting.
The opportunity to eat has come, swooping in for more.

Morning Snowstorm
Heavy flakes of snow falling in the early morning twilight.
Swimming together for safety and diving in search of food.
Cold water awakens the senses that snowfall seems to dull.

A old woman with too much red ink
Spilled some paint and rushed off to the sink.
But the stains were severe
And removal costs dear.
You might say she was NOT #tickled pink.

My grasp of #geography's weak,
And I'm far from a #history geek.
Key events? Barely knew 'em
Unless I lived through 'em.
Ask me WHEN something happened? I freak!
