#HumblePoeticCranes

these poems are
occasionally brain farts
these poems sometimes
come formed
more or less
these poems are
courage in
incompleteness
these poems can be
re-workings of old lines
into new shoes
these poems are
a simple offering
to the sky

a day of pain
somewhat mollified
by live cams
from Africa
elephants & giraffes
several species of antelope
grooving with some swifts
& ostriches & zebras
oh my

found enough
energy spoons
to cook a nice
vegetable soup
& when this cook
says ‘yum!’
you know you’re
in for a treat

a day for
small things
we are not the
only pebbles
on the beach
but we are
tumbled by the
waves when
they come

#HumblePoeticCranes

twiddle thumbs
eat something
& drink water
wait for a zephyr
to stir the brain dust
try to sift a word
mandala
out of the
cloud
some days are
compressed carbon
& some are just
dust

#HumblePoeticCranes

standing at the edge
of the park
where memories play
it is always sad
when friends are
called home
sometimes never
to return
you just stand there
as if in a dream
& whisper
thanks for you

#Poetry

#HumblePoeticCranes

... & now we wait for the
saddest day & I hope that
there’s a fast train to take
you to the pearly gates
because I know you’ll
love that as we do you

& now the park
where memories play
becomes the waiting room
you were never always here
but you were always there
to look forward to seeing you
whenever our paths crossed ... 1/2

recovery day
afternoon doctor’s
appointment
bracketed by sleep
as the camellias bloom
then fall in the
shortening light

wobbly weariness
needs all the soft things
but first, let’s watch
the bike race

... plummeted behind
the escarpment
hastening our cheerios
sending us off to
warm our toes until
our next gathering
down by the
rhomboid pool
in Wombarra

down by the
rhomboid pool
in Wombarra
two friends sat
watching the squally
wind whipping the
water as they chatted
until the sun ... 1/2

de Montaigne reminds
us that everyone
has arses &
everyone poops
after scanning the
news of the day
I take mild solace in
imagining the risible
faces of the dastardly
powerful straining at
their stool

whispering cranes
life is a palimpsest
overwritten
threads of healing

outside it’s oh so quiet
then the empty
unicorn watering can
tumbles upright
in the breeze
in a vain yet
fabulous effort
to catch any potential rain

#Poetry

#HumblePoeticCranes

time for a cbd gummy
& to repair to the comfy chair
to think about what’s
to be done
about what is uncertain
what is known is that
I won’t be buying a merkin

energy spoons
cast asunder
the rain sounds
pretty as it hits
the roof & tin fence
un-rusted
then moves on to
flow over my mood
resting in the gutter

the in-house
symphony
the rhythm of
ticking clocks
accompanied by
the legato drone
of the fridge
& the swirling
abafando of the
newly acquired
dishwasher

white rabbit
being my buddy
with atlas eyes to
see the ratts of the capital
feeling gravity unfurl
in a lotus flower

precious things
might come in big ships
& caught a light sneeze
that did not linger with
twin layers of lightning
that tasted nothing like malibu

psychotherapy
oh lordy may
black dove, high
on a secret journey
was the last high
on mace spray
