Not yet dawn
Morning’s air chills
Blankets more inviting
Soon will grab some tea
Chaos Tamer
Most everything that isn’t a haiku or tanka falls into this category lately. Subject to change, of course.
Not yet dawn
Morning’s air chills
Blankets more inviting
Soon will grab some tea
Came to with this as-build reducing the night’s sky.

My mind playing Iz*
<
p style=”font-family:"”>A song I know
<
p style=”font-family:"”>But whose name
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Escapes me
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Gentle and peaceful
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Bringing me rest
<
p style=”font-family:"”>And contentment
<
p style=”font-family:"”>*If you aren’t familiar with the musician Iz, he was Israel Kaʻanoʻi Kamakawiwoʻole. Learn more about him here. He’s long been high in my list of favorite musicians.
My phone buzzes
<
p style=”font-family:"”>A beautiful woman
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Who I remember
<
p style=”font-family:"”>In diapers
<
p style=”font-family:"”>I feel joy
<
p style=”font-family:"”>At the blessing
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Of my simple
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Witness
<
p style=”font-family:"”>
I want to sleep
I want to write
I want these two
To align in
Daylight
May 24, 2918
<
p style=”font-family:"”>What will that day like?
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Beyond my imagining
<
p style=”font-family:"”>So far forward
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Where my name
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Will have faded
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Into the realm of dreams
<
p style=”font-family:"”>This notion brought about
<
p style=”font-family:"”>By my misplaced fingers
Light flows across my blinds
Bird dialog strikes my ears
My room’s emptiness
Speaks to my past
And my future
I watch a hummingbird
<
p style=”font-family:"”>And wonder about time
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Are we only allowed
<
p style=”font-family:"”>A specific number
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Of heartbeats?
