The Road Away

I tried to walk the streets

I tread when I was young,

stopping time and again

reviewing what’s been done

remembered where and when

the dreams I keep were born

and began to comprehend

where yesterday had gone.

I had not remained to watch

the changes going on

and now on my return

there was emptiness, not song.

The roads had all diverged

and taken everything along,

and I was just one traveler now

and very far from home.

The trouble with poetry …

(answering Billy Collins’ poem by the same name)

I realized after reading your poem

how small my fish tank is

and how I forget to care for it

on account of having to deal

with bankers who are real sharks.

.

I wish I had rabbits right now.

And knew enough to care for them.

And knew how to sell them

like your poetry book

that I have in my hands.

.

I know of your urges

and I have broken in tonight

to share with you

a memory of summer asphalt

cooled by a fire hydrant

spitting through a tin cylinder

knocking over laughing

children who never saw

a lighthouse or dewy grass.

.

I stole that from no one.

.

But I know what you mean

about secretly wanting an end.

Ode to My Love

by RC

In my life, you are the bright, shining sun.
Your presence makes my heart begin to glow.
As beautiful and graceful as a doe
And as innocent and pure as a nun.
Over you, wars are fought and battles won.
To lose you is the source of all my woe;
Such a day, I don’t want to come to know
Because, to me, you’re always number one.
Perhaps, with my penning of all these lines,
Something deep in your heart and mind will click
And, looking back, you will see all of my signs.
You will realize what you have always meant
To me, who hath always thought thee heav’n sent.
Perhaps then, I will be the one you pick.
