so softly the summer rain falls

when yesterday was today,

surreptitiously culled from could be,

to become,

you and that version-of-the-day me, did interact.

now i find your – is –

no more.

and realizing my inability to continue my journey

with you,

into your was,

makes me pause…

 

how apropos – on such a day as this;

hummingbirds and seraphim’s!

and as your you ascends from the tomb of could not,

the universe itself is moved to tears –

so softly the summer rain falls…

to the world

ice is forming –
on the windows –
now.
i hear the whistle of the wind –
its song,
so sad!
everywhere –
in cold secluded –
silence.
every-thing – captured
within grey!
no longer do the birds
in joyful chorus-
sing happily their songs.
their words lie frozen –
broken as the surface of the sky.
i touch the glass –
to wipe the discontent away –
to see if i may find you there –
peering in –
desperation eyes –
searching –
longing!
but i find only lonely shades of winter –
placid as the frozen sea –
          of your indifference!
