A Cherita

deep in the tangles

of the honeysuckle
and grape vines

a sparrow
ferries twigs and sticks,
nurturing expectations

Reposting an old poem to Open Link Night over at dVerse Poets Pub where Lisa is hosting.

Fridays

our friday night hideaway

a table for two

that jazz quartet

that voice –

meandering, lamenting the blues

the hills, the valleys

soulful notes

mournful notes riding the bass

the story of a life – in and out of the blues

at our friday night hideaway

This was for quadrille night but I didn’t finish it. So I’m sharing it here on OLN being hosted by Grace over at dVerse.

To participate go here.

end of a rose

barely there petals
linger no more

strewn by autumn wind
they rest unrelated,
whole no longer
