Remembering This Moment: Desert Profiles

Fog
The fog lifted–
like a web across my sleeping eyes
it crawled away in slow motion
leaving a snail’s trail of wispy melancholia.
Forgive
You turned away–
I try to forgive you a little bit each day.
The Tracks
The sun sets on the tracks turning them into straight
lines of salmon steel reflecting the day’s end.
We pause at that inverted “v” where perspective
tricks us into thinking we’ve come such a very long way.
Broken
We are all broken, to one extent or another
and there is always beauty to be found in the broken.
Day Dreaming
Walking along frozen fields of white
crystals cracking in the cold morning wind,
I dream of a warm sun and red tulips.
The Light
A tropical plant living lushly with care and
attention, gravitates toward the light of the
window and is contained by a cold, hard pane
of cloudy, obscure glass.
Listening
I heard the sound before I saw him.
The distant cry of a solitary crow
soaring in cold currents.
“Here I am, over here”, he seemed to say.
“I see you”, I whispered in the wind.
Days
Every story has its day,
every day – an end.
Puppy Nap
Afternoon naps were meant to be shared.
