the rose and the apple

The crows didn't move
as the cars passed. They just kept
eating the opossum.
The yellow leaves fell
around them as they lay in
the sun. Oh, sweet them.

The moon looks so close
I could touch it, but I can't
and so I just look.
The winds blew her hair.
The sunlight shone on her face.
The earth made her way.

My grandfather dug
a hole, planted a start and
called it "Michelle's Tree".

and a great big sky.

I want a Sunday
laying in bed with you, my
head on your shoulder.
It's all around me.
From the sun that I embrace
to the air I breathe.
From her car to her
toes, her heart to her hair, that
one's got it. She's it.
I like walking in
the shade in the summer and
in autumn the sun.

believe in something to be good.
Just believe you are.

I dreamt of you all
night and, in this dim light, I'm
dreaming of you still.

"Crazy has places

I always mean to
take a picture where the phone
wires meet, but I haven't.

It felt swept away
and lay there on the floor
as
I gazed upon it.
I'd never understood
the park bench 'til I saw the
world in which it lived.

She pulled the glove
onto her hand slowly, but not
so that it took long.

I feel inspired and
I want to walk. Walk from this
shore to the other.

The night is cold. Our
bodies snuggle into warm.
The morning is far.
