"Absence of An Anwer"
In the city
I grabbed dinner -
solo I was.
How odd I felt
with no one to converse;
even the waiters were mum.
So I sprung,
leaving my two buck tip -
out the door
to the city noise.
I hesitated by the car
and thought of driving.
Heading to nowhere
certain I would drive
long into the night
until the shadows of darkness
changed from ghost to dew
constructed by the magic
of the moon and sun
and still,
I would have no answer.
I turned the key
back in the lock
and took off on foot.
I walked across the bridge,
the current swift beneath me
enough to force a run
to paved safety
just the other side.
I walked until lights
with illuminating smiles
appeared in homes not my own
and realizing,
perhaps what I was searching for
was not to be found
in the city tonight.

"Big Night In A Small Town"
The spring sun came out today
without a tease -
its warmth and shine
were for real.
It brought with it
the flocks and herds
from hilltop and forest
to where winter had worn away.
I saw them there
fowl and mammal
grazing, sucking in
the God given heaven sent manna,
acting like kids out on a big night in a small town
raising their beaks and nostrils to the heavens
saying their thanks to God above.
