#NaHaiWriMo 2017 - day twentysix

everything’s melting

the water drips and pools

listen to that sound

*

in every instance

it’s all about the timing

yours, mine, God’s

*

with some mistakes

air gets sucked out of the room

with others, not

#NaHaiWriMo 2017 – day twentyfive

grasping at shadows
flicker at the edge of vision
crows like ghosts

*

slight dusting of snow
footsteps slowly fading
erasure of traces

*

tired of excuses
the tyranny of absence
i’m only human

*

first tentative steps
learning to trust again 
the restoration

#NaHaiWriMo 2017 – day twentyfour

a weight is lifted

conversations full of hope

learning new dance steps

*

magpie skips on the path

looks at everything but me

blinks and turns its head

*

the pen remains capped

papers scattered on my desk

i drink my coffee

#NaHaiWriMo 2017 – day twentythree

the trick is to know
when you should use questions 
and when statements

#NaHaiWriMo 2017 – day twentytwo

so many stories
written on skin and eye
the body’s perception

*

sometimes, just sometimes
there are answers to prayer
not merely hoping

*

who would have thought
you would look so beautiful
so naked
