Verdure
You extend Your
forever hands
further into
this canyon bend;
...a murmur
sweeps walled leather - toughened
gulfs...
You mend the end

"Ratatouille"
This canyon bend is the length of an outstretched palms life line.
weathering ourselves among our work,
keeping busy bee for a tidy life as we're told to do.
repair cafe retreat,
we fixed into the early morning
until we lost track of the time,
turning in our hands.
beach side motel slide door window,
i'd watch that sunrise a million times
cast over the sand.
as the mini fridge compressor kicks on,
the hum reminds us of sentences spiced with existence.
-------------------------------------------------
this makes me think of that time i stole the pen from the funeral home signature book.
your presence on here is greatly missed, but life beckons more than we care to give.

Well...next time I should check your responses before I comment on your poems; I commented on yours not knowing it was in response to mine!
Thank you so much my friend :) My mind has needed a break too, and I've been reading a lot in my spare time. I do have some work backed up, but uploading and editing is a pain...

Oh my goodness, that's a treat! Yeah, you sometimes need to fill up before you pour out. That's probably more than a little cliche...I don't care lol!

Didn't quite get it but it read beautifully aloud (5 or 6 times) the words are put together so beautifully :-)))))))))))))))))))
