#2586 Baby's Breath

Laying down with you at night
Sleeping as I hold you tight
Your sweet breath in the evening light
Everything is going to be alright

#2585 New Wrinkle

A new wrinkle appeared
On my face today
I'm pretty sure it wasn't there
The last time I looked

Those lines around my eyes
Seem to come and go
But this new wrinkle is here to stay
No matter what I try it won't go away

The tides may turn as the clock ticks
But this wrinkle on my face
Seems to be looking back at me
As a reminder that time is running out

#2584 Spring To Life

Thoughts like seeds
Blowing in the wind
On the road to nowhere
Planted in the ground
Growing into the sky
Without ever wondering why

#2583 Hot Lunch

Robots under my skin
Begin again in spilled ink
Spells over magic seashells
Between macaroni and cheese
We slip through holes in the fabric
While the universe keeps on flowing

#2582 Invisible Eyes

Silent shadows moving
Through city streets at dawn
Anonymously floating along
Frozen in timeless moments
Protected from the elements
Hidden away out in the open
Hoping to survive another day

#2581 Lost Laughter

Find those special moments
That seem to pass by so quickly
Capture them inside your heart
Then save them for a lonely day

#2580 A Poem For Nobody

Wrote a new poem
With beautiful language
And clever wordplay
But nobody wanted to read it

So I walked around town
And wrote down observations
Then crafted them into poetry
But nobody wanted to read it

Finally I decided to give up
And I didn't write anything
But I couldn't stop words from flowing
So I wrote a new poem for nobody
