What will we recall
years from now
Slip on sandals shuffling slow
Three hearts
wisp of a willow
Our thoughts unspoken
as we go

Rocking Chair
Late nights I hear your chair
rocking rhythmic to a tune
we played once and tossed away
I sit quiet upon the cool evening stair
listening for your hum
tapping light holding onto time
Shadows slow dance against the wall
in hollow voice I dare in vain call
but I know I know
you aren’t there at all.
Kentucky
He called her Tucky
affectionate low voice
faraway eyes
memorializing lost lovers
or deceased family
missing home.
