scented with a hint
of winter darkness
the bitter wind
reminds us
we won’t go on forever

****
i listen
to the chattering wind
just before dark
so many voices call to me
none of them yours
****
**
when darkness falls
and there is no light to guide us,
we must try to become the light…
with words or with silent presence,
embracing one another,
in the bleakness of night
let us feel our way,
to the dawn of compassion.

For Sunday Scribblings 2 – ‘it is difficult’
dueling the darkness a banjo moon
