Distant Shadows
The product
of bad choices
and decisions
Never living
in the darkness
or light
A denizen
of long
distant shadows
That serve to hide
riddles
— and orphans of sight
**
Eternity Weds
Where senses
reseed
Flowers
regrow
When lovers
remeet
Cupid
rebows
With time
giving way
And place
stepping back
Eternity
weds
To moments
— unmatched
**
9:11
9:02
and all
was well
9:05
that haunting
bell
9:08
and death
arrives
9:11
the end
— goodbye
**
The Red Zone
Creating separation
his words
forced an opening
Access had been
cleared
meaning secured
With daylight surrounding
what before
shrouded darkness
Each phrase
in the red zone
— reception assured
**

Today’s poems have a for boating field to them, Kurt. Nicely rhymed and metered they seem to speak out of darkness.
Again, many thanks.
