You could be a songbird
It’d be okay
Sing in any octave
Sing throughout the day
I stay in prayerful quiet
Only God can hear
A lifetime filled with harmony
A songbird in my ear
As Yet Untitled

Thank God: A Haiku
Your heartbeat, heartbeat
The last truth you said to me
My ear to your chest
Child
No reason my heart ought beat
No logic
Save you, who saves me
From nothingness, thinks me something
From absence, brings me present
No reason, no logic
But perfect sense
(Said Silently)
(It’s 8 o’clock soon
Such a long time since sundown, and the naysayers have settled into the alone
All that’s left I know to do
Thank God for the time, and feel the heartbeat of the those who share mine)
smiths
formed as weapons
unknowingly at times
or to intimidate so someone feels big
who will craft them
so they are not them at all
but friends with tiny heartbeats
This Haiku: Without
Daylight, oh Daylight,
I know. You need to let me
feel your pulse. Let me.
