Haiku

a fallen tree

more sky revealed

in the woods

ice crusted snow

the crunch. . . 

of mocha toffee

Saturday

alone together

each in a separate room

a desert apart

the dryness moves closer

into thoughts and feelings

mixed intentions

confusion in our thoughts

creates an impasse

a hot meal eaten

 in cold silence

words chosen with care

soft and harmless with no bite

we slip past the pain

the unspoken promise

of a return to normal
