Gray skies and thunder
And the dog looks for shelter
Hiding near my feet.

And I remember
A flower in a hedgerow
Years ago, in France.

Early this morning,
Listening to doves calling,
I slowly wake up.

The bullfrog returns,
Keeping me awake with his
Insistent croaking.

Roadside, there's a goose
Eating dandelion greens
As I'm driving by.

Just days ago--bare
Branches.  Now, leaves whisper
When a breeze moves them.

Listen to the words...
Let their meaning change your life...
"The Sounds of Silence."

Feeling old tonight...
Aching knees, aching shoulder,
Unable to sleep.

Late night memories...
Where I was and how I felt
And who was with me.

The sun's still shining
As a sudden storm rattles
Our windows today.

A sparrow in flight,
Singing as it passes, and
I want to sing, too.

The storm grows nearer.
The dog trembles, tries to hide,
Lying at my feet.

4 April 2017

Just a year ago,
Watching the sky and waiting
For the coming storm.

Growing old, my friends
No longer near, wishing for
Past intimacies.
