Mid-morning thoughts float on by
Watching clouds part in a blue sky
Then back to the daily grind
As storm clouds gather in my mind
Droning hiss of pouring rain
Drip, drop from the kitchen sink
Discordant melodies merge
….stillness descends
Words of truth
Words of wisdom
Words unspoken
Silent words
Passing moments in time
Some brief, some linger
Others weigh heavy
Longing to be lifted
And pass on to better times
I can feel the heat of darkness burning
Consumed in the flames of desire
Lost in the light of an early dawn
