The Movement Of People And The Impact Of

All the cars were moving
slowly on the highway and I
put my arm out the window and
let the sun sit on my skin and
there was no music on
only the sound of all the cars
moving slowly and
as we inched toward the overpass
I could see a figure waving from up above
all the traffic and as I passed slowly
underneath him I could tell his face was
happy and I looked into the rearview mirror at
myself and it was the face of someone who
was in traffic and going nowhere and I knew
the man on the bridge had it all
right.

... Enjoy!

The Things You Learn In The Middle Of A Lake

I remember long days in the little aluminum boat with him and it semed he could sit all day and his beer was in a can and now that I am older I appreciate his ability to be happy there in the little boat, under the sun, with his beer and the long long moments of silence as the water hit the side of the boat while we waited for the fish to find our worms.

That was when I learned that it really isn't about about catching anything. It is about all the other stuff. The quiet, the air, the people you are with and the words you exchange.

I suppose that can be said for just about everything that we do.

The last time I went to the lake, I poured some of my beer into the water from the end of the dock when no one was looking. I don't remember if I caught anything or not but that's OK. I do remember him and that is what matters..

One Day This Moment Will Be

The air is cold even though there is sun and I open the window and lean on the sill and listen to the silence on the street and my finger goes over the wrinkles in the corner of my eye and I remember that my time here is limited and one day this moment will be lost forever.

...Enjoy!

A Good Thing For Both Of Us

I had not seen him in nearly twenty years.

I am not the same and
he is not the same
which is a good thing for
both of us.

We were sitting in the green grass at the park
down by the lake and
as he spoke the
memory of the old him faded and
was replaced by the
new him who
was doing the talking.

I am not the same and
he is not the same
which is a good thing for
both of us.

On the way to the airport
he said that he swore that the
old days got better with the passing of
each new day and
I said with each new day the old days
just get older
and
we laughed.

Just like we used to.

We were having a drink
at a table out near the sidewalk
in a city I had never been to and
over the sound of the street
she told me about a place I
have never been to and
a person that I have never met and
I daydreamed about going there
as she talked and
behind her the sun was bright and
gold and huge and
the waitress brought another round and
sitting here now in this dark room
I would give anything for a drink on
a sidewalk in a city I have never
been to.

... Enjoy!

We were driving in the country and
it was summer and
the window was down and
your hand floated in the air outside your window and
there was no
other place on earth
at that moment.
I am sure of that.
