December Cold Moon

The super moon arrives full of light
tilting my head to gaze in amazement
can mere words describe my delight
fresh fallen snow covers the pavement

shivering in the cold, pondering life
listening to the neighbor’s barking dog
flickering stars seem unusually bright
clearing yesterday’s mysterious fog 

tonight, I’ll navigate my way to you
following the beat of ancient drums
singing poetic songs in dreams of blue
there are words sitting on my tongue

some written, spoken or never said
some notes sit silently, never to be read

I was stargazing last night and this poem was born.
Thanks for reading

Poetry of Hope

resist peacefully
create poetry of hope
make a difference 
~
people carry signs
beep for our democracy
geese honk overhead
~
pray for tomorrow
promises of renewal
hear mourning doves cry

Two Minus Two

I was waiting on a dream
    two minus two equals zero
a stray golden moonbeam
    you were my superhero

Lifting me up into the light
    floating in zero gravity
trying to hold you tight
    living in another reality

you drifted away
    gone, gone, gone
