Hiraeth

At the end of the disaster that swept
Our streets with the twilight
And seeped into our hearts 
Like the moonbeams,
What remained was a patch of purple
On my dress.
It was not your purple...
It was of a mindful kid who drew blossoms of lavender on everything
On my copies, my walls
My dress.

Yet why does a purple patch 
Like the twilight
And the disasters 
Remind me of  times 
That never were.

Happy high and boundaries

Today we sat in a pub With a beer glass each And a pitcher kept at our side Which miraculously never emptied. We were drawing our lines Each with a chalk They blurred... We crossed.. And came back to our lives Tipsy. fudgy . Mud headed. You said .. we are two lost souls Drowning in a beer mug I corrected you... Nah... Drowned in beer pitcher You said with a long face... Do not look at the outside... And then the universe started to expand Or so my other drunk friend said.. (Rang me up) So the tiny bubbles oozed up to the surface And burst Like stars in the sky... And spread like dusts Across our universe Settled on our eyes... As we walked past slumber. We did not count how many fell In my side of the line And how many on your court...
