May the words wrap
Around you
In shade and in
Sun.
May a book grab
Inside you
To where stories
Abound.
May good tales sustain
Your
Every heartbeat
And sound.
May you find space
Aplenty
To create
Reading time.
For the Tuesday Photo Challenge: Sculpture
“It’s covering its eyes.”
“Say what?” Sergeant Frank was always gruff but Leon knew a warning when he heard it. He could (almost) visualize his superior in his boxer-shorts, remote in one hand and beer in the other. One did not get between the Sergeant and his beer.
“The new statue, Sir. In Rockefeller. It’s covering its eyes.”
“Leon, are you drunk?!”
“No, Sir. The hotdog man saw it, too. And a bystander.”
“Statues don’t move, Leon. That’s why they’re called statues.”
“This one did, Sir.”
Silence.
“Sir?”
Sigh. “I’m sending Marco. Meanwhile, Leon … sit tight and … do not engage …”

Roofed in green
Curves of foliage
They stand chiseled
And skilled,
Each a niche
Dedicated
To the men of
The guild.

Sentinels
Set in stone
Guard gates of
This temple zone.
Come to leave
You must pass
By these guards
From the past,
Who protect it
Perhaps
From time’s
Inevitable collapse.
For the Lens-Artists Challenge: Doors and doorways

In a massive hall of pompous busts
And naked marble edge
One must
Take time
To rest one’s head.
