Saturday night fever



The world,

and all of its people,

make me think and

dream and do.

I've had a really perfect two days,

my end of shift last night

melted into total loveliness.

Then Saturday arrived ~

with all her promises

of coffee in the quaintest of places,

and paintings on the wall that

you remarked on.

I didn't even see them.

I could only,

see you.

Years flew by in the moments

of your eyes.

The world didn't feel heavy today,

in fact,

the opposite.

It felt as light

as a kite flying in the sky.

When the words soak into and straight

out of my pores again

I always wonder

will they know what I mean

when I write this?

Does it ever really matter?

To the New Yorker or

the Amish

or my dearest Kess

or my beloved Lorraine in Wales

who always loved my words?

This world.

And all its people.

They make me dream,

and think,

and do.

  1. The world and its people make me think and dream and do, too, sweetie. I think they are the reason I write. I see someone or something in the street, one of those moments in everyday life, and I am inspired.

    I like to think I know what you mean when I read your words, but I think it's more complex than that. I think a million people can read the same thing, and every one of them take away something different. I'm sure people understand and appreciate your overall meaning, but I also think your words help us to form ideas of our own too. If that makes sense?

Pretty misty stars

A sound of birds singing

 It's early.  And almost a year since I was here. I hear a sound of birds singing  outside my window and a dog barking down the street. ...
