"CURSED COAT" BY: LINDA BURNS



I am ten years old.

Deserted country road

Icy wind dashing headlong

Only moonlight illuminating

dark shadows and the red reflected

by their tapetum lucidum

Hundred pound, ugly brown coat

the church gave me

Ditch to ditch

No escape.

Wake up screaming...



WRITTEN BY: LINDA BURNS


I, LINDA -

had my 75th birthday.

I welcome 2022.

AS ALWAYS:

May your muse be prolific and faithful and never leave you swinging in the blustering breeze of dry, fruitless frustration.

May you see the poetry in every situation and may your efforts be well received by your peers.

As time winds down, may you be where you need to be when you need to be there doing what you are meant to be doing.

Be Blessed!


It's the wind that is dashing headlong down the road . . .

tapetum lucidum is the thing in animal eyes that reflect light

animals are wolves © 3 years ago, Linda Burns
