At the Bar I wait the unseen Unknown to my eyes of blue, A slate that starts clean, What will become when we’re through; Quick ending or starting new The fans spun, Nothing was begun, All possibilities stop, But fans spun. I didn’t mind drinking wine But possibilities lost Were not worth the cost After drinking all alone; Just went home. Driving in Thoughts Years change roads, Small sticks become the tall trees That line roads Swaying in the twilight breeze, Twilight is so late, Deep in heated summertime, The once familiar, Is now very new to mind And this tired brain Wants the things that youth held But it is for naught, The absence was as if yelled, And I drive thinking Of possibilities there, My thoughts are asking Does absence mean there’s no care? I catch most every light red, Time for thoughts to roll my head, With conversation unsaid, Left with silence screams instead Gloom |

Thank you, minoune, For taking the time to read and respond, And for your wishes, But loneliness is something I am well familiar with Some might say I cause my own loneliness. It is a pain I’ve grown to accept. Gloom |

Hey Gloomy, come out to Jax, Fl., I will have a drink with you... While reading this I felt like I was the sad shadow watching you... Loved it. Susan |

Thank you, Susan, Thank you, Susan, You are very kind in your praise, But I guess the reason my poetry sinks Is either because no one reads it or don’t think it rates a response, No matter, I write to please myself If someone else also enjoys, that is good also. Thank you, Helen, The roads a keep on changing, I drove down a road I hadn’t drive in more than twenty years; The changes, the memories, sigh Gloom |
