The End Of Our Day

The Hawk West Desk Window 9:43pm

I lament the drawing

of the shade

upon The End Of Our Day

heralded by The Crescent Moon

and adjacent planet

accenting the twilight

of Sunset

seeping into the darkening

ridges of islands

and outer water ways

TRANSFIGURATION 4

The Tomato-coloured Couch 8:29pm

The Blue Jay is a sizeable

decorative

bird

picking grubs from the bark moss

of The Scraggly Apple

hopping to the newel posts

on the deck

for Me to have

His Full View

 

RED INSIDES

The Tomato-coloured Couch 2:38pm

The Sun-slash across

My Couch is calling Me

to sit in Its Tomato-coloured Shaft

to contemplate My Premises

— My Place In This House —

as The Slant moves along

below a sky light

in the cathedral ceiling

momentarily illuminating My Book

infusing The Book Mark Sash

with a glitter of brighter crimson:

I Am Internal To This Domain

 

THE HOUSE CALL

The Hawk Portico 6:22pm

Today I Saw A Super Bug

Shaped Like A Mosquito

Only Several Times Bigger

— He Landed On Our Car Wind-shield

While My Husband

Attended To A Patient —

Transparent Wings Clapped Together

& Sparkled

As I Looked Up At Him Through The Glass

He Told Me

“I Am Alive

To Help

Humanity”

MORNING BRILLIANCE

The Hawk Queen Bed 9:20am

Morning Brilliance

off The Ocean

caught at My Kitchen Outpost

carries with me

up The Stairs

as I take the cups

to The Hawk Queen Bed

where We have Our Morning

Coffee

SEE OUR MOON

The Hawk West Desk Window 9:35pm

I live in a fortress

of sanctity

where My Every Word

is a sacred step

to where I already am

locked-in by a sky

of charcoal clouds

wafting over Our Crescent

Moon

SEE OUR SILVER

The Hawk West Desk Window 6:18pm

I am seething to write

what a friend suggested I paint —

I cannot paint It

for It still moves

crashes

in fleeting streaks

all around Me

like the clatter

of shooting cameras

as some Superstar

emerges from a limousine

TIME’S GRACE

The Tomato-coloured Couch 3:24pm

I Grace Time

with a glance at My Watch

Cell Phone

Computer

Dashboard (Car)

Microwave

Slow Cooker

and if I see

10:22

2:22

9:11

I Am Graced

FABLED SOUND

The Hawk Queen Bed 9:38pm

If I Could Paint A Sky

With Words —

Can I Reach The Ear

With Sounds —

Sounds Of Such Value To Me

I Want To Encapsulate

Them —

The Story Of Our Ocean

With No Beginning

And No End —

The Sweetness Of My Peepers

So Brief?

The Din Of Busy Traffic?
