Sunday Night Po
Red Tide
conversations
i have with you
never reach shores,
they silently drift
upon the river
between us.
sounds splash
in moiling tides
or drown
within shallow pools
of my skip a stone
heart.
tired words
that echo-like
in my wire tight skull
dare to flee through cracks
and take flight
to a place
where lost language
lives.
we stand on fragile bridges at times
Good thing I can swim..thx for the visit WCG

Ha.. well had to post something, right?
Thx Brian!!
I like the “Sunday Night Po”! Yeah, conversations never reaching shores… I can relate. I especially love the “skip-a-stone heart” — that image makes me ponder, amongst the shallow pools and depths of love. ~ Lily
So many people talk to each other but how many really listen?
