unfurl the pale green fingers
the breeze loves tickles

impatient, i wait
willing the toaster's clock on
as if to speed time
all those rushes, stitched back whole,
a could-be lifetime's thought, lost

This sentence in the morning affirmation by @nlowell upthread caught my eye as so universal and familiar: "So much to do and the day slips through my fingers like water." A lot of water thus flows under the bridge.

#return to a time before
my get up and go
got up and went out into
autumn rain from the get go

Two more episodes
Another late night
New leaves in banned books,
Libraries with blank pages.
Slaves to ignorance.

A Time to Mourn
I promised to fight
for you, but need to know if
the war is over.

dusty from passing traffic
but never quitting

Though Noah had doubts,
Put the orchard on the boat.
“He said they’re in pears…”

across the soft blue skin

summer heat. early.
one lone April day, then cool.
Climate's muscle flex.
blood on the pale snow
shed spatter of love betrayed
by love's jealousy

My Folly
Through self-doubt, I risk
destroying love, by attempts
to keep it secure.

blustery spring winds
pushing us ever closer
to summer's delights
young like washed dawn skies
sun and cloud and speed contained
just barely begun

I pray for clear skies,
Not to see your puny gods.
Just to breathe freely.

quick flicker - pulse to the dirge

It feels redundant,
all these blurted I love you's.
Yet each is fresh truth.
Why shy from repeated cheer,
but not its repeated lack?
Nuit chaude
nos corps brûlants
printemps
BONNE NUIT LE #fediverse
JE VOUS AIME !
