And then visitors in rare albums Count loose change and other plans Where it begins and ends Common pardon forgets while Cadence grabs desolation by the neck Apologies moving the set of Shoes numb, filled with walking dead Starting fires where lovers left Tearing textiles to shreds Glass eyes arrive transplanted True essence from self would fly To miracles in nights with no moon Walking along the knower of streets Bluer skies mingle with wannabe hours Laying awake with flashlights erratic Yet somehow comes a lonely swoop Setting every blatant moment Across cool night air We miss the inheritance of coming events Sitting alone holding hands with darkened shadows Slowly garnishing a banquet table Awakening from fearful concepts Trinkets no longer tug at our sleeves Remembering most, the faint voices Age mortgages household acts Voices sooth whatever the mind wants Sleeping doubles revisit tomorrow’s promise Playing late into an unhinging afternoon Leaning and wobbling like drunks Pounding on the door, of the Knights of Columbus What I remember most, are the high points of mountains while Whitewashing a old weathered barn A young man whistles tunes of animations Holding a wish in one hand, from an old school from hometown Like a pioneer in a canoe, with both legs over opposite sides I Listen to an astounding terrain Floating deeply into settling hills Visiting some unworldly library |

What I remember most, are the high points of mountains while Whitewashing a old weathered barn A young man whistles tunes of animations Holding a wish in one hand, from an old school from hometown Like a pioneer in a canoe, with both legs over opposite sides I Listen to an astounding terrain Floating deeply into settling hills Visiting some unworldly library Wow, thanks for the journey. Maree Oh, you speak to me in riddles |

So many of the images from the previous poems of yours that I have read, have remained with me. You just added several more! May this day be full of poetic fodder!  Linda |

LeeJ, if your writing is at all a reflection of who you are, I'd love to sit on the seawall with you and just talk...or listen to you talk, or something. You're a trip into depths I haven't visited since my early twenties when Edgar Cayce was the man, the universe resided inside my skull,"Ahmmmmm" was the word, "I Am" was all encompassing "we" was an enigma, a trip into the farthest corners of thought and "Life" was the password of another dimension. LeeJ, my friend, I dream with you. Jimmy |
