Loving You

Loving you
did not come naturally
and you sure don’t make it easy.

The satisfaction of a quiet morning

And in these quiet moments
at the beginning of the day
the peace each brand new morning brings
before the frack and fray
I breathe, I smile, I lift my head
and look up to the sky
safe in this brief contentment
which will always satisfy

Slice of Life

A poet’s life is never dull
for there is always stuff around
to capture inspiration
and write a few words down
It might be quite innocuous
that others rarely see
But captured in some lines of verse
Provides a remedy

Hinted…

 

A hint of promise
brought by the warming sunshine
is all that I need

Crossroads

I was standing at the crossroads,

unsure which way to go,

My heart chose the right one,

the mind said no,

The left one’s better,

choose the left, it said,
