the rest of february’s micropoetry part one

Day fifteen

Poem for that summer we went fishing. Whether the lake was still or not.


Day sixteen 

Poem for rebuilding a life. For rekindling hope. For making a new poem.


Day seventeen 

Poem for the one who collects tears in lacrymatories. Not a competition. 


Day eighteen

Poem for bare walls and empty chairs. Fill them with something good. Let there be the sound of laughter. Share a meal with the one who has become a stranger. 


Day nineteen 

Poem for the moment. Waiting. Everything thick and heavy. Clouds waiting to burst. 


Day twenty

Poem for the moment you wiped away the tears. Pain as a baptism. Welcome.
