writing poetry

sometimes my words slip out of me -

like petals slip silently through idle fingers

like water trickles over soft beds of moss

like light cascades gold between dark branches 

making dust appear as though fairies have been there


and sometimes

my words feel like

stones being

tossed into

a placid lake

under the 

hot sun

and shadeless 

dead tree

or like the

awkward silence

after an argument 

with a person

you haven't

loved long
