Fish mill about the koi pond --
No hooks or fishnets;
Just falling leaves to break up
Hours into minutes.

A Time When Time Was Real [Free Verse]
There was a time
when time was real --
when a traveler might head out
for a destination with every
expectation that he would
arrive to such a place as
was lodged in his memory...
Only to find a desolate place --
overgrown and vacant --
cold ash long blown from the fires,
intermixing with the soil.
If one's journey was long enough,
one might wonder whether everything
had been fine when one set out,
and whether tragedy had struck
and nature reclaimed during those
long days on the trail.
