the full moon calling
unwilling to leave my cell
i couldn’t see her face
2020.05.06: flashes
distant lightning strike
memories from long ago
before thunder claps
2020.05.05: shelter
out here on the plains
when clouds billow for miles up
storms come fast and hard
don’t be caught in the open
safety is inside and down
2020.05.04: nonessential
spring ephemerals
growing taller by road sides
with mowers idled
2020.05.03: the good sheep
tuning out the world
and following the one voice
brings abundant life
Longing For Water
