HERMIT

Not part of this world
you alone meditate your
reason for being.

Intellect

A world made of words
So clear I forget to ask
Did it ever live?

"Existential thought", by so many who have pondered as do you...searching!

Nature's Loss

The wind howled northward
Breaking down the dunes
To impotent grains of sand,
Scurrying in the dark night,
Looking for a safe refuge.

The Unknown

The dog sniffed the air
Sensing something disturbing.
He slowly rose up,
Cocking his head for answers,
But it did not comfort him.

The use of "senses"...put me right there!

You have just described my Sheltie this very morning, who's 25 hrs each day on guard against those... savage squirrels!

Screaming, warning all
with your mournful nocturnal
cries of recent death!

MUSIC

Cowboys tame their cows
and playboys woo their girlfriends
while conductors wave,
weave. wand, work hosts of players
interpreting classic lore.

Q

This was a sound effort on my part.
Concept trumped poetic influence this time round.

A New Home

Soon you hold the key
To a space that will be yours
Strange, perhaps, at first
You steadily shape what comes
What stays, what leaves, what begins

Reality

Rest your tired eyes,
Don't let them stare at the waste,
Or look for answers.
Just have your contented dreams
Carry you to a long sleep.

Autumn Begins

A single leaf falls
Anticipating the cold.
Wanting to be first
To find it's winter quarters.
Mulch ado about nothing.

I love the ambiguity of your words as you cloak them with images!

I feel the "sadness" of your intent to share...and can relate, bro

Ole Bill is smiling with your last "line"!
