Still Ku

for one deep breath

Sylvia Pond's
still water
cleans a mind

~

sagebrush dusk
will there be
moon or stars

~

like a bird
I sing my song
to the trees

~

months after
the storm
scars are fresh

~

minus tide –
at the ferry landing
second coffee

~

in a graveyard –
exuberant lives
reduced to calm

~

new love passion
quiets with
old love reflection

This one-

minus tide –
at the ferry landing
second coffee

- just caught my eye and my pleasure the most...

As usual, yours are all wonderful. But I was particularly struck by this one:

sagebrush dusk
will there be
moon or stars

I love the tide one. Proving a point that we cant control everything. There are greater forces that command we are still sometimes.

They are all wonderful, but my personal favorite is:

like a bird
I sing my song
to the trees

It feels so happy, carefree, and I love trees!

All deeply meaningful. The last give new insight into maturing love.
