Chilly morning

Chilly Morning

Frost covers the yard.

I sip my coffee for warmth, 

my son's bus comes late.

Midnight

Midnight

Slam the closet door,
Bind the handle with a tie, 
And hope that this works.

Night Watch

Night Watch

Static radio,
My flashlight failing,  I run.
The darkness gives chase...

Friday Fires

Friday Fires:

Such chaos today!
Nothing under control...yet,
I face it calmly.

West

West

A spring, ankle deep,
we delay for rest, and fun
we can spare a day

Garland

Garland 

Slow. One prayer. One bead,
A solitary focus.
Lips and fingers sync...

Dream

 Dream

Ghost woman, trap doors,
Basement horror, a struggle,
close call, then: Safety!

Folks, the dream that I had last night was as random as it was filled with chaos and action. There were ghosts, criminals and dastardly deeds, rounded off with violence and absurdity...but in the end, there was safety...One day I will have to transcribe it from the dream journal.
