Seasonal Lights
L. B. Mek said:
we can distil all of life
to these scenic words:
\'Linda and I
Breakfast, on fruit and cereal\'..
(all the rest is mere decoration and spice
here be what all dreams amount to, genuinely)
hope you have a great Christmas & New Year\'s
my cherished friend
(a little early but better safe than sorry
I\'m an airhead and may forget)
as-ever, I read and strive to heed
stay warm and safe

Conflict
L. B. Mek said:
what a write! this is so deep Jerry..
in the uk black and white signs
are used for speed warnings
and here in your imagery
is a mirror reflection of your wording
we hurtle though nightmares
headfirst, irrespective of consequence
then we wake up
shudder, and switch on our screens
to see weapons flying at irreversible speeds
then those who survive
dry some leaves, call it tea
and theorise about fallibility\'s, causality...
just yesterday, I mentioned to someone
that it wouldn\'t feel like xmas if there wasn\'t december turmoil in the west bank.
and like clockwork, election season
bringing about those same regurgitated images
on our screens..

Lament for a past world
L. B. Mek said:
loved your wording Jerry, thank you
(when we think we\'ve got life sussed
we inevitably flip a page and it all
begins anew, our gifted
twists and turns, till
that very last laboured breath...
wisdom\'s absolutism as curse
momentary gaiety as our life\'s sincerity
and our tomorrow\'s curated by yesterday\'s memories)

L. B. Mek said:
indeed, such crisp imagery
I\'ve always wanted to experience

fall fireworks of foliage
in all its magnificence
lol
thanks for sharing Jerry

Jerry, this possesses a postcard beauty and yet contains a deeper and more profound sense in its brevity.
