Mist rolls off the pond
Single column rising up
Flattened from above

Pervasive stillness
Periwinkle sky, ringed with
Pink and purple clouds

Pervasive stillness
kaleidoscopic nature
Rudely interrupted

Different point of view
Thrilled to have a change like this
Though little difference

For motivation
Celebration is in order
Halfway thru this book

His obnoxiousness
Is not a problem for me
That is his own problem

Despite distractions
My job is to retain calm
How else shall I be?

I have a minute
no better time than right now
To write poetry

Corn flies crave swatting
One: not worth the energy
Dozens test my calm

Loud cacophony
So many words, nothing said
Large crowd tiny space

Stories end too soon;
The hero who keeps the girl...
That's worth the telling.

Income is needed
More than to survive, only
Until debts are paid

A three day weekend
Projects, fam'ly, friends, reflection
Seems nearly enough.

Sunlight glimmers off
the pond, apparent beauty
on the surface, scum

What have I to say?
More than just normal drivel...
Do I want to share?

Eleven-thirty
Once early, now past bedtime
Sleepless thoughts abound
