I feel old songlines...

I feel old song lines in the droning of wise trees recalling first lives their #primordial senses awoken by rustling leaves I feel the lost hush of #primordial silence in wordless spaces #vss365 #tanka #haiku #poetry #blueskypoets

I am rock for now...

I am rock for now tomorrow may be feather #self is not concrete but a restless, wand'ring cloud who knows the feel of rain #vss365 #tanka #blueskypoets #poetry

his old tin shed sways...

his old tin #shed sways drunk on endless winds and rains yet my note's still there faded, stamped with muddy boots and my one anxious word - wait #vss365 #tanka #poetry #blueskypoets
