Mediocre Poetry

I've been slacking! Ack! Here's all I've got for you now...a mediocre poem. One of these days I'll get back on top of posting!


Crickets sing me to the front steps
humming low
reminding me I have company
in the silk ruffles of wind.

Moths thud against the screen door
wing powder floats,
light on my head’s dark crown
like snow falling in summer

Closing my eyes against porch lights
cool dark fills lids
wiping daydreams away with nights eraser
leaving room for sleep

Silent sleep.
