1.
Child with large wax lips
As ghostly as memories
Faded Kodachrome
2.
A painting undone
A portrait as Mouseketeer
Wrapped up in self doubt
3.
Young woman, yellow dress
The shadow of a spider
Early morning sun
4.
Deep deep blue shadows
A contrast of omission
That which is not there
5.
The elusive snipe
A hot humid wandering
Small trails through the woods
6.
Paths end at the creek
All of a Sunday morning
The smell of wet leaves
7.
An unfinished song
Wading in barefoot cool water
Tenor of soft mud
8.
We could be anything
Tethered we are to this spot
A memory flash
9.
Eyes play tricks on us
We are all of the senses
We are so foolish
10.
The thing is just this
That I am growing old now
That I grind my teeth
E. Charles Rolwing III
