One star
The moon
A yet lit
Christmas tree
Across the road

In their glow
The winter night
Is still and dark
And yet so deeply blue

In a distance
Far from here
The strident sounds
Of a captious dog—

I love
My life

Thank you all


This came as a result of my reading
and at the same thing struggling with
whether or not I should attend an actual
poetry society meeting.  In the end this
said I had nothing to gain by going.

Thanks again.

no way to read out if you should go to a poetry meeting or not. Did I mention PM? that is all the trouble came from. No, you shall not  go.


a beautiful silent night.
