Plenty of dishes
A sink full of soapy water
Watching
Water draining slowly
Sucking sound grows louder
Draining
The dirty line
Around the perimeter
Remains

The water is slowly lost
... at the same exact time

As the water was draining
Something that shouldn't be there
Feeling
Lifting from the water
An unexpected gift
Silver
Staring at what has been taught
A lining from cloudy water
Remains

A fork is quickly found
... at the same exact time




"I have gone away. The bed is cold and empty. Trees bend their boughs toward the earth. And nighttime birds float as black faces."

every deed has a silver lining.....

In your light I learn how to love
In your beauty how to make poems
You dance inside my chest where
no one sees you and that sight becomes this art

Thank you both for reading and replying.

Heck, I didn't even know anyone read this... until now.
