Melancholy
Caught In A Memory, Stuck On Replay
A speck of grace
A secret kept
A hidden place
I can't forget
*
A whispered word
A tender touch
A moment lost
A bit too much?
A second thought
Another chance
A choice to make
A longer glance
*
A mistake or not
A final shot
A special friend
A time forgot
A memory recaptured
A soul reclaimed
A softly mentioned
Lovers name
*
Looking into your eyes,
I’ve found who I am.
When you bite your lips,
my whole world comes undone.
*
Somehow pulling away
never once crossed my mind.
Giving you more of me,
till you tell me goodbye.

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of us… my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the day’s oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along — apace with a sloth — has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.
