Nighttime is Never Late


The sky grew dark

tonight

right on time.

Nighttime is never 

late.

The earth 

never stops turning.

And the sun

always rises.


In a way 

that makes 

everything easier

because

there are so many things

you can

never count on.

Autumn



No one believes

there is a ghost in the woods.


I think now about the drive out of town.

The gold leaves drifting into shadows.

The shifting trees.

You brought me here

into the long dry grass.

You promised

a memory -

when we were young

and you were .. everything.
