there are books to read
and there are words to write
yet i’m distracted
by the gentle sounds
of the sleepy forest
seeping in my open bedroom window
that and the plaintive meow of someone
who wants back inside

a poem
layers
of
time
shift
memories
drift
in
filling
me
up
…
weighing
me
down.

he
came
in
swift
he
is
a
gift
that
causes
my
mood
to
lift

I listen to cicadas sing
zing, zing, zing
the same song for hours
as bees buzz ’round the flowers
Ο
afternoon fades,
gives way to night
crickets join in
and play the chorus
Ο
katydids’ calls and answers resonate
I contemplate
the symphony of the forest

sunshine, salty breeze
siren song beseeching me-
paradise awaits
♥
troubles melt away
scrunching sand under bare feet-
ocean waves hello
♥
beauty surrounds me
swimming into the sunset-
please don’t follow me
