Currently on a long road trip. Today’s drive will end in a bit, but tomorrow is yet another long day of driving.

*sigh… I’m tired 🥱🫩

My poem called Reading You.

…

On a desk lies a book,
one people choose to leave alone.
Dust caught between unturned pages—
Until you came along.

You chose to read my story,
and I chose to read yours.

Image of a waterford printed in black on a white brick background.

Ireland by Joe Kelly

Through a mist it is always seen
hills and rivers
aches and shivers
fairy tale wonder land of green.

[Note: this is a geographic waterford about Ireland]

I watch the gate
from the window,
a pleasant view,
birds flit by, people pass—
though none
are you.

trains go by
the garden at night,
at the station
passengers alight—
but none
are you.

In life, I meet
so many folk,
some I like,
some I don't

yet still—

none
are you.

Her epistle had
Addressed the situation
But it didn’t touch
The root. In that car crash our
Marriage and child died.

As our sullen sun
Touched the horizon, we knew
We needn't say it
Empathy wasn’t enough
To maintain this love

She’s Transitioned—

Yesterday lingered on the windowsill
a thin veil, I could not sift in my hands. Your name moved through the house as stolen wind,underneath gossamer dust amid crevices—settling—corners I still avoid.

As simple as a close touch
It all means so much
Separated or together
Any storm we can whether
Our souls fused
I am your muse
Difficult to find
Someone of like mind
Search the earth
For someone of worth
Loneliness creeps in
Celibacy might win
But then...
When you least expect
Someone shows you respect
All the kind words that you've never heard
Strong shoulders are there
A hand stroking your hair
Makes you laugh instead of cry
Blessing you with wings to fly
Having hope looking ahead
Nothing gets left unsaid
RENEWED LIFE carrying on
There is so much to be done
Your gift I am so grateful for
There is so much more in store

Just as branches
reach for the sky
without ever holding it
my longing rises too
to touch the air
and feel how space
quietly teaches freedom.

In the rainy season, the earth learns to breathe,
Green shoots rise where silence used to be.
Between the falling rain, my longing grows true,
Holding on to hope
: this yearning will meet you.
