Remembering

Solitude 

does not mean

you are 

alone.

I actually crave 

the empty chamber

of 

my mind where

people dear to me

come back over and over

through the rhythm 

of 

a piece of music

from behind 

the pages of a small story

written

or  

in between the intricate weaving 

of 

ordinary materials

shaped into art.

I've got a four-day weekend 

to 

sit down 

and remember all of you.

Behind the Music You're Listening To

 

and all the visuals your eyes 

can embrace

there is 

a lack of words 

on my part

to complete the décor.

As the music video demonstrates

a struggling artist

pushing to release the words

from captivity

I too am 

finding it difficult to let

 naked words

resound on their own within a landscape 

of competing artistry.

Castles Crowns and Cottages 

will continue

to post here twice a month

while devoting more time to poetry classes

at The Loft Literary Center

and 

workshops in my home

because behind

every melody and image

via

  

there are words that long to sing.
