DUST BUNNIES

Stirring In Winds of Memory

By Andrew C McDonaldPublished about a year ago Updated about a year ago 1 min read

Dust Bunnies Frolic

Dark Cobweb Festooned Corners

Of My Haunted Mind

Nuggets Left Behind

Remembrance Tickles Nostrils

With A Forlorn Stench

Olfactory Gift

Excreted From Recesses

Impacting Sinus

Gust Blown Reminders

Periphereral Vision Swirls

Tugging My SightLine

Detritus Stirs Up

Melancholic Breaths Taken

Immersed - Raptures Past

Our Story Played Out

Deserted Drive In Movie

Bogie And Bacall

Screen Slashed By Dust Storm

Marred Greyish, Times Patina

Once Great Love - Ashes

Ashes Of Regret

Sprinkled On Popcorn Bucket

Butter Gone Rancid

Haunted By Her Shade

Overshadowed By Days Past

Her Essence Long Gone

Dust Bunnies Frolic

Dark Cobweb Festooned Corners

Of My Haunted Mind

    Your Senryu poems are perfect, the pictures are excellent, I came to read them because I wrote a story about dust bunnies for Vocal.
