BREATH (Remove filter)
In Gratitude
We’ve known each other all our lives.
You’ve been there for me day and night,
every minute, every hour,
without me even trying.
I have taken you for granted, all the time,
and I am sorry.
I only know I need you when you’re running short,
shallow, caught or less.

GOOD MORNING
As the sun beats down
on another glorious day,
the blackbirds are singing

After Death
your hand rests
on the edge
of the kitchen table
there is no
silence here
only the light fading
like the slow
leaking of breath

as it sings new ways
like flickering waves
across the sea.
