Boxes
Silhouettes like buildings,
Uneven against the wall.
Lone skyscrapers in the desert,
On sand-colored carpet.
Walls
Newly painted backdrop for the story
Yet to unfold.
Thumbtacks would cause craters, so
Live in a blinding white desert with no reminders of the past.
Bed
Trek through the sand to a temporary resting place.
Nights are cold in the desert
So pull closer your familiar blanket
The only token of life before.
Backyard
A pool unfit for swimming.
Only a mirage, tempting you to jump in.
Beyond it the desert disappears
Into lush bushes and citrus trees,
Trees
That wave in the desert wind
And welcome you home.
Feedback please. Poetry project...Si o no?
