“Missed”
Amidst dizzy days,
a missed routine becomes
accidental break.

Amidst dizzy days,
a missed routine becomes
accidental break.
Steve D
Coffee cups warm hands,
hoods pulled over dampened hair,
rainy errand run.
Steve D
Crash, hiss, recede, build.
Shallow tides to sweep the feet,
draw into its depths.
Steve D
Shapeless wall of gray.
Forms revealed by white flashes,
looming in the sky.
Steve D
Tiny seed tumbles,
buried in forest debris,
then towers above.
Steve D
Grasping for control,
slow to a single inhale.
And then another.
Steve D
Distraction through play.
Old attractions seen anew.
Pleasantly themed day.
Steve D
Pre-selected path,
habitually followed.
Pause to touch the leaves.
Steve D
Twenty-four hours,
hiatus from daily life,
reaffirming rest.
Steve D
Giant blue mushroom,
playful running waterfall,
torrential downspout.
