Would love to say something on all ten thousand of you but realized that a poet had said it so much better than me about 200 years ago.

Where You Need to Be
You can do great things
but only if you
are in the place
where they need
to be done.
Do not wait
for life to call
nor sit at home
wondering why
your life feels
incomplete.
You can not escape
unhappy times
but you can move
through them with
grace, knowing they
will be resolved or
at least will fade away
with time.
Always focus on the solution
not on the problem.
31 Days
My apologies, all, for straying from my 31 days of October posts. I had been ill and to the hospital. I promise to make the posts up as October progresses. Please give me another day or two to make them up. I need to get back into the swing of things.
Hopefully, I’ll feel like getting back to writing tomorrow or the next day. I haven’t been to my mundane (real) job either. 😦 Hopefully, I can get back there as well tomorrow or the next day. Thank you for your patience.
Thanks for reading!

RELEASE
Fly to the high sky
Fly away, there is nothing
On Earth for you now
Fall Rains
FALL RAINS
They came along cold
Those chilling rains of fall tide
Inward time’s hither

Untitled Haiku
I look left then right
There is no answer in sight
Searching stays the heart

Throwback Thursday
I BELIEVE THIS IS THE SCOOBY COSTUME I HAD ONE YEAR BACK IN THE 70’S! OH, SO LONG AGO. YET, I CAN RECALL IT AS IF IT WERE YESTERDAY.
Seasonal Haiku
Seasonal Haiku (or two)
Autumn breezes blow
The world turns inward and mute
Winter shields the grave
***
A shaking tree limb
Be free of the whipping wind
Blanketed by snow

Wordless Wednesday
Killer on the Train
KILLER ON THE TRAIN
Your energy envelops me
Wraps me in ice
A grip I cannot escape
Is of a killer on the train
Bold and egotistical
You’re aware of how I feel
I feel you
I turn to look at you
Your head swivels my way
Your eyes meet mine
How did you know I’d look?
I guess evil has its way
We’re looking directly at one another
Your eyes on mine
You’ve seized me
I cannot move
I will not back down
Cannot hide from you
Are you wondering in the least about how I know?
No
Our eyes are locked together
Three seconds seem like minutes
I’m studying you
You’re daring me – Don’t stop
Your round eyes
Abysmal and black
Are you afraid? – your eyes challenge
I am not
Not of me?
Not of you
Only the special can see
I see
The train slows
He lets me go
I survived
Because I acknowledged
A killer on the train
