Halloween Hesitation

Fierce jack-o-lanterns burn outside each house
And shadows creep across the empty streets.
Black cats are hissing on a backyard fence
As unknown noises slither through the trees.

It's Halloween again and creatures roam.
Take careful steps into the night.  Beware!
Are green-eyed witches lurking out of sight?
Have zombies come alive to hunt for prey?

Hide, hide within your costumes.  Think once more.
Is candy really worth the risk you take?

Donald Trump

Donald Trump won the election
In spite of his true party selection
Not Independent, Democrat or Republican
For he always was and forever will be a Trumpian.

No Place To Go

She sat among the branches of a tree,
A lonely girl who wanted most to leave.
But eight-year olds have nowhere else to go,
So a weeping tree became her secret friend.

Patience

Hidden in Winter
Under the earth's cold cover
Spring patiently waits

Gentle Jack

Gentle cat named Jack
Roams around the neighborhood
Belongs to no one.

Peace

Silent rivers flow
Far beyond the farthest town
Peace still unbroken

In the Snow

Paw prints in the snow
Disrupt the pristine landscape
Predator or prey

Voices

Voices of reason
Lost in the circling chaos
Too soft to be heard?
