behind the shadow
the cacophony pauses
suddenly silent
Thanks to Moonwashed Musings for the inspiration.

ode to autumn’s sunflower
boundless autumn days
burning red and yellow haze
the muddled trees weep
as the sparrows soar and sing
lifted by the sun’s last bloom

metanoia
a new road undone
unbridled and limitless
metanoia

The Short of It: Silence
I started working on this piece several years ago, but I could never get it quite right. Then, my dad passed away and the words just came to me. I’m honored to have it featured by The Short of It.
I see a budding bloom
I see a budding bloom
wafting in the breeze
Its petals beckon to the bees
like the newly wedded groom
I see a budding bloom
Gazing towards the trees
a blossom hopes to please
Like the new bride’s swoon
I see a budding bloom
Night comes in like a tease
And the flower feels unease
But under the light of the rising moon
I see a budding bloom
