Things of the Heart, Told in Quiet #1

A letter is time past

scrawled on a tree

written in blue

with quiet tea and buttoned

as a coat holding inside

its red carnation.

2012

Another poem earmarked for my forthcoming second volume, provisionally titled “Under a Blue Dome.” The volume will also include the poems from the set “Emily’s Poems for Modern Boys,” some of which I have already featured on the blog. Have a glance at  “At Noon,” “The Old Cock and the Younger Hens,” and “A Fun Romance.”

To read more of my poetry, click here to see preview and purchase my first volume at Blurb Books. Shining in Brightnesss includes twenty original poems and two essays on my writing.
