Riding home today

Strange wind
shifting down the weather
cooler and with rain in its breath
gray glare in the late afternoon

I watch them ambling
making it the weekend because
weekends are allowed to be relaxed
so they let down their guard

Stark barren light from the sky
solid white
blocked with clouds
portents somehow of more than rain

Absorbing so much
what was that you said
never mind
the light of this hour is brazen

Soon I will close my eyes
against the odd insistent glare
and anyway night is coming
to draw its shadowed curtain over the day

That’s beautiful.

she is a poet and didn’t even know it But her feet shot it; cuz they’re “Longfellows”. LOL, sorry, couldn’t resist. This is really nice!

This is lovely and soothing. 🙂 Hugs ~

I love the pic on the front page of your diary. Where might I find some pics (and does it take a rocket scientist to attach it to front page of o d?)?

The night is when my mind replays the day.

Mmmm, I can almost smell the scent that precedes a rainfall. Maybe it’s just wishful thinking. It’s been hot and dry for quite a spell around here. Hugs,

lovely piece of writing. Sweet Dreams!!

This is superb sweet poet. So much encapsulated in a few words, sending the imagination on a lovely meandering. Many thanks 😉
