On old fears

from the midnight dark
keen wind claws at window’s face
brings ancient cave dreams

(a small nonsense)

In a small blue box
Deep in my corner cupboard
Sits a small, aged, marzipan frog
Sometimes, in moments of distraction
or caustic meditation
I dream which of my children
will inherit this prize.
It is a threat
disturbing their waking hours.

delights, dreams, poem, poets

Delights and dreams
For the eyes of others
For the hearts of the few
For the discounts of many
It’s easy being a poet
Except for the poetry

Faded sepia,
Wistful smile from yesterday
