A pointed breeze, a damp sneeze--rain droplets
Drip into a splash splished by a heavy boot.

A storm door slams against a metal jamb; the
Wooden one, shut brusquely.

A canary chirp, a weak battery, signals a warning
Call for change.

A muted gracious melody--neighbors search
Beyond crossfire futility.

Later, a sunrise moon rocket test drives liftoff
Glory to soar, lord over the known holding
Beholden the unknown.

Earlier, a GOAT-iness match retires evolution.

Fried potatoes and onions, sea salt, cracked pepper;
Olive oil sautéed chicken and broccoli--a mother's
Old-time dinner, anew, rings true.
