Random thoughts on a night walk I first published this here about 10 years ago. My apologies for the repost but it seemed to refl my current thoughts.




Conundrum

Why does night fall
So brilliantly black
When city lights illuminate 
Low clouds

Cold winds
Pull your clothes
Tear your eyes

Streetlamps glow as
Strung electric amber 
Necklaces  

Solitary sentinels
Warming as distant stars
Unmoving as you transit 
Their cheerless glow

Why do I 
Wish for love 
Only to find care
And wish for care 
only to find
love
