Outscape, Inscape

Yesterday, at the library

Inside

Outside

Tree, bird, words

Some Hidden

thoughts and unsaid words

collect and build in

pools of verse, like land-locked trees

that try to fly.  (How many ever do?)

These quirky pre-launched poems-to-be,

in  struggling to expand their reach,

find here a way yet to emerge,
  to coax the word buds through.

One makes a tree, draws it just so, dressed up as 'poem'

with words that show it's all in vain this stealthy surge,
that tries to just prevail -- cuz all

too often what you get is simply soup (and lacking worth);

deep down inside you know it's doomed, and that it will just fail.
And yet, one learns and can evolve.

Like honing, hearing (new resolve!), and this

type task's of value, yet.  So try  another one.

                                                              Dawn! –

                                                           rooster tells

                                                    us, 'Here comes sun'. Look,

                                                             o’er the treetops, greet the

                                                                sky,   the   snow-filled   fields, the    frozen   brook

                                                                   two squirrels   chase,  in 

                                                                         morning’s light on

                                                                          banks   deep, cold

                                                                            & white. O life!
                                                                                  Another                                                                                                                                                                     D                                                                                                                                                                        A
