After The Pain
Memories arrive uninvited—
Slamming the screen door--
Materializing out of thin air,

Memories arrive uninvited—
Slamming the screen door--
Materializing out of thin air,
Fleeting days of warmth
Captured like glowing fireflies
Comfort for cold nights
The swan reflects upon the surface of the water,
As a poet contemplates their inner being and soul,
The reflection connects with the swan,
Poets and poetry are like script is to paper -
One is fit for use by the other;
Script and paper go hand in hand -
A middle-aged man of dubious character,
To other's eyes that behold him,
Dressed in fine clothes, fit for a master,
I delight in the beauty of a sunset sparkle,
Across a peaceful endless ocean,
The breeze creating tiny waves,
My mind got tired chasing trendy ghosts
And everything looks so absurd to me,
Today without a sense becomes a lost
Coarse, white sands
Swallowed occasionally by salty, crystal waters
Sky the lightening apricot of the pensive sunset
