This not so new thing on everyone’s lips have led to unrest. The killing of George Floyd led to a diverse sunami of humanity taking to the streets. It looks and feels like a cohesive quilt. It feels like change.
not again –
this awakening
rests firmly
in the hands of time, will this last
or shatter like fragile glass

For Flower of The Day over at Cee’s Photography
Muddled message
A memory here, a thought there
The very unexpected reference
by the most unlikely aquaintance
Your unmistakable energy
set out in the universe
Telepathy by unusual means
A fluffy white feathers delicate landing
on my windshield
A final message
A journey ends

falling to the ground
a flower closer to the root
bidding farewell
