Lily Tierney- Three Poems

BRANCHES

I kept watching as
the squirrel jumped
from the branches.

A Cardinal flew away
the squirrel was
getting too close.
I stood and watched
this time I wasn't
running away.

VANISHED

Daylight streaming
through a broken window.

Dreams in the night

flowing in her subconscious.

At the break in dawn

all vanished.

If only, she would fix
that window.

 

 

 

ROOM

A ringing phone

knock on the door

neither was answered.

Sleeping, his dreams

never traveled far

enough to be

with me.

He'll wake up, and

see the room he is in.
