move ears even if not limbs
listen, don't hide fully:
no limpness of somewhat guard in flowers…
feel in brown weeds
as one can dream of a voice like on radio
to then get excited just to turn corner
gradual as day not oh gad
yet focus can be short while standing
but there's a lump when not doing it well
is there a bouquet by taking in your bark
describing december and we the dog isn't cold,
sometimes that fur downstairs cabined I sympathize
when self shelter isn't enough
mot moth mother (include)
a baby can turn words at birth for blooming
youth not caught like in bad weather
sky has invisible blue
but flame isn't
nor real hope
I don't want it to be afternoon and over
seasonal 24 hours not by gadgets but dew and duty
of inculcating to not slip cultivating
Author notes
editing seems needed in last stanza especially still but liking it as well
good luck is no enclosure
emoticons and the applause aren't your symbols as words by alphabet
not for ego parts but each, yet rose can grow on and by us
