Poetry For Everyday People

Flower  For a  Friend

Writing is a coming out,
out of our shells, our
prisons, our situations,
our everyday good or bad,
sometimes getting along
doesn't mean you understand
life, living seems crazy
most of the time, can you believe
what our eyes have seen?

I find the simple things
occupy me, the true
meditation of it, lighting
candles is an everyday ritual,

at least ten a night, I feel
transformed by the time I am
done lighting, sitting down,
comfortable cloth, wine,
notebook, a philosophical time
machine, a clever diversion,

thoughts, beautiful crazy amazing
in and out of so many, I am so many
things in few seconds, the things we've
done with our minds, kick your feet up
majesty, the sun sets tonight for you,
I lay sweet dreams at your feet, a kiss,

a poem goodnight.
