A Moment at Twilight

This poem may not hold up

to the elements,

in fact it may

float away with the cherry blossoms,

bleed away with the swell of the sea,

wash away with the rain.

But I wrote it

and you read it

and for the moment

that is enough.

I began this poetry blogging journey three years ago in May and it has been a most enjoyable experience. I have enjoyed the work of many talented poets, writers, photographers, and artists of many types and I am grateful to you all for sharing yourselves through your work, and for your support of and interest in mine. I'll be taking a break from blogging for a while and this site will be going into hibernation. My plan is to return some months from now. My email address, poetlaundry@gmail.com, will continue to remain active. Take care and enjoy your journey!

Upon Departure

He calls to say

he'll be late:

had a D.O.A.

at shift change

(paperwork still to be completed,

tasks to be checked off).

And I can't help but think

that is

how it is,

for the lady who succumbed,

for the sister, now, who had been taking care of her,

for each of us

one day.

Shift.

Change.
