I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

A mix of emotions, shadows
of friendships past,
promises unfulfilled,
and
slight hints of sorrow
obscure the judgment required.
Dawn calls attention
to matters at hand, a signal
to push aside frustrations
and rise above
the tedium.
Recognize the wonder.
Realize both the
true vast colour
hiding
behind the shades
and what can
be found in
this fundamentally
miraculous day.
j.g.l.
November Rain
wet pavement
and leaves
incense for a time
the scent reaching for
reminders
when and how
november rain
washing away the silence
striking down fear
we sit
saying nothing
feeling
all has been forgotten
all we know is real
you want to believe
despite
what you tell yourself
confusing confusion with
wanderlust
and bewilderment
truth will last
longer than the rain
washing away the silence
pulling off the pain
j.g.l.
