the flower, so pale…
Taking my time
I hear every conversation,
I hear the fuzz of background noise
that so easily comes to the fore,
I see the folds of the curtain,
suddenly of interest,
I see the flower,
so pale, in the rug,
theatre seats aren’t really comfy,
this waiting is for learning…
(I forgot to take my phone)

Book review: An Empire Divided
King George and his ministers
wanted the Caribbean sugar islands
more than they wanted the 13 colonies…

The Book of Days
The dawn’s early light can be pleasure enough for the whole day.
There are words enough to tell the story of “the temptation of day to come.”
It is my delight to write some of them for your delectation.
Scant
A low montane bank
that has nowhere to go,
the weight of sky above it,
unyielding earth below.
It does not block the sun,
nor beckon for the day,
it is a vestige, aye,
and soon to go away.

The so-called “Founding Fathers”
weren’t the only ones
who helped to shape our independence…
