Potpourri

Heart

birthday of departed
burdened heart
agony stuttered breath

**

Autumn

mind mapped
rain mopped streets
autumn leaves had already staked claim

**

Fusion

Wrested time from time to rest
sprinting spirit fused with kindreds
at rendezvous point, in real time

**

Artist 

amnesic hands
took up neglected brush
canvas came to life

**

Aroma
On second steam, lazily exhaled
aroma sniffing nose on pumpkin
pie speedily zeroed

**

Miracle

object of vent
my bête noir
decanted praise

**

Beloved

your arrival stills breath
your departure robs breath
you are breath of my breath

**

Allergies

living, breathing words
wordlessness suffocates
stirring curs of somnolent allergies

**
