Waves still rise and fall
Anchors begin dissolving
I begin to drown
I hate everything
Bitterly I remember
Myself most of all
Always remember:
not many can transcend words
but love remains one
The year grows tiny:
Regrettably not the last
Time I close my eyes
Green with golden touch:
a jewel’s care teaches still
of love’s endless reach
(December 12 ’25 outing with a wonderful friend.)
Three in the morning
The cat is grooming herself
My only company
Husband wide awake
…
Crows feet crinkling
I look younger without them
Lies of youth, a waste
I hide in the dark:
secret plans in the making
would undo all good
Faraway moon shines
across so many borders
on your eyes and mine
I wake shaken:
Dreams of battle and travel
For the second time
