stark
sky of darkest gray --
what a way
to greet the day
outside the window the world's
strange shapes are
caught in
nets of rain
time keeps
passing
while the radio plays
sad songs...
& there are so many
sad songs

Spoon River Days
(C) R.L.K.
....
as the morning bells ring
mist from the river
veils the trees
....
the play of a morning sunbeam
as the dust rag glides
across the piano top
....
at close of day
the shimmering air
just before the rain
....
after the last train
only the sound of the wind
through the empty depot
....
the weary old moon
pauses a moment
over the riverbed
